From my recent World's End Girlfriend review of The Lie Lay Land:

In my personal opinion, "Scorpius Circus" is the most eclectic and entertaining composition on this album. It begins with a strongly Spanish-influenced tinny guitar melody and backing circus music, eventually succumbing to electronic noise that quickly explodes into an adventurous cello melody with a lead violin that sounds like a dance written for Dracula. After a bit of crunchy electronic explosion, a somewhat sad violin melody comes through, like the kind you'd hear in a movie as two friends become heartbroken as one watches the other through a train window as he departs for a new home. The music becomes subdued, but again morphs into a beautiful melody, this time played on guitar but is just as emotionally powerful. If there were ever a song that deserved the label epic, this is it.

Translated (35 times):

"For me this album protected by Scorpio. The electronics and the son of Reed, Spain is a."

Origin of Symmetry - Muse

"It is stunning how the drums are off kilter at times adding to the sense of madness and alienation. The fractured rhythms and metrical patterns are unburdened by lilting, shimmering keyboards and arresting low pitched guitars. "

"This album is very melodic and injects a decent amount of prog sigs and some intriguing passages of creativity. I have the live DVD and most of these songs appear on it so I am used to hearing these in a live format."

...18 translations later, Bing gives us:

"A little bit of creativity and Mélodiqu together forever and one album, the value of the company to predict most of the tourist attractions. DVD format directly, and listen to some good music alive today."

From a Godley and Creme review I posted today:

"... it begins and ends with a slow, jazzy lament, and the middle of the song is a long procession of quick changes in volume, tempo, and style, giving the impression of someone going to sleep, having a weird chaotic dream, and then waking up again."

8 translations later, it becomes:

"... It begins and ends with a slow and shambolic sympathy and this song is in a rapidly changing and print volume, rhythm, style, bizarre and confusing, he woke up and went back to sleep after a treatment, because it was a very long time."

"Hanashukketsu is a duo concisting of Alan (don't know his last name) and "Vompatti", two people I know from the fourms at Progarchives.com. The two have mixed together Vompatti's ambient industreal soundscapes with Alan's acoustic guitar work. Thier debut, titled "Ceramic Knives" has four untitled tracks on it. Each track seems to be better than the last. You woulden't really think the two styles would mix, but they work almot perfectly, creating a great ambient album. You should go listen. They have all the tracks free to listen to and download on thier Bandcamp and Sound Cloud. 4/5"

Lord have mercy. Transperfect completely mangles whatever you put in....

""The sounds of the industry. This album is what I always envision when I people talk about Industrial music. Not Ministry, KMFDM, NIN, or Front Line Assembly, but something like this. This is a harsh album, but not in the same way as a Merzbow album. It isn't that it's extremely loud, but that it's just abrasive and very off-putting, much in the same as you'd rather not be around heavy equipment at a construction site. I'm really uncertain as to exactly what is going on that makes these sounds, and the best word I can come up with to describe the sounds, is machines. Theres all sorts of scratches and scrapes, and similar noise. These sounds also work very well with the concept behind this album, which is mainly about the atrocities committed on the Jews by the Nazis during WWII. This concept really changes how you listen to the "music" on this album, it really does reflect the horror of what happened in German concentration camps. This album truly captures what it set out to accomplish, a Symphony For A Genocide. I see this as an indispenseble piece of Prog Electronic/Industrial music. ""
