Girls Under Glass - Equilibrium
Girls Under Glass - Equilibrium
GuG carry a perception that they're an industrial band but break out of that mold with this album. It's less industrial, more goth rock. But don't think 'Sisters of Murphy'. It's more similar to L'Ame Immortelle and features some supporting female vox from Jenny Kahler and Sandra Hammer. This domestically re-releases a 1999 CD originally on a small label by the guy from Lacrimosa, remastered with new art, and adds 3 unlisted tracks from the long out-of-print GuG sideband Trauma album Fractal (orig on Machinery label), including a Kraftwerk cover and the long version of 'Desire Lasts Forever', previously issued in short form on the 'Frozen' ep. It combines traditional rock instruments and EBM tools and sounds but is neither a 'rock' album or a purely 'industrial' CD. If you're the type who likes yer peas and carrots seperate, this ain't for you. If you like them mixed, then you may eat this and like it. - Tsanger Banger, Temple of Horror Webzine
