Oei!
Ze hadden hun naam al niet mee --Adam is ook zo'n grappige "Christian Rock" band uit de VS-- maar oei:
Adam - "Adam"
The Southern hemisphere seems to generally be a fertile ground for dark and hard Electro. After Mexico being a well-established source for hellish sounds, it is now Italy's turn to send out another promising heir to the Hardfloor-throne. While building their music on a solid foundation of EBM-sequencers, Techno-beats and melodic Trance-leads, combined with aggressive vocals, Adam manage to position themselves with a distinct sound of their own. This is the result of two main distinguishing factors: the first one being the combination of classic Hardfloor machinations with light, melodic Eighties-influences. The second one is the voice of the quartet's singer, Jeez. It's raw charm displays a certain affinity towards Dark Metal, thus unleashing a far greater aggressive potential... This balancing act between aggression and emotion spawns a whole new sub-genre: Emo-Hardfloor. A showcase example is Adam's version of the Eighties classic "Send Me an Angel", originally by Real Life. While transforming the piece into a much harder and contemporary club context, its melodic essence is left intact. Thus, at the hands of the Italian quartet, the romantic New Wave track becomes a first-class floor burner. Adam celebrate their electronic venture into the bowels of hell as a matter of the heart, making their self-titled debut an album that will not only shake and stir you thoroughly with huge beats but that is also destined to leave a lasting impression.

Juist. "Emo-Hardfloor". Haha. Chris Pohl (Blutengel, Tumor, etc.) zou de hele PR-afdeling van zijn Fear Section label moeten ontslaan WANT MET ZO'N GENRENAAM SCHRIK JE NOGAL WAT MOGELIJKE KOPERS AF. En dat is zonde, want het is eigenlijk gewoon een goede, originele dark electro plaat en de presentatie is dik in orde. Artwork = (Y)
Sinds wanneer bevind Italië zich trouwens onder de evenaar? (bitte uitzoomen)
