Empire State Human - Romo (Album)

This CD is coming from Irish Synth-Pop duo Empire State Human from Dublin.
After many years of being active in the music scene and a wide range of releases under their belt, they decided to release their latest album on Russian label ScentAir Records

While listening to this CD, this sound is so refreshing and yet sounding very familiar. The great and divine vocal parts of Aidan Casserly fills in smoothly and suits their overall haunting and mystique electro synth-pop sound. You could say it might sound like a mixture between Soft Cell, Depeche Mode and Kraftwerk. But that is just unfair to say as it stands firmly on its own.

The diversity of moods keeps the listener interested and curious, listening to "Walking With Bowie"; it does unfold and unfolds to a bigger story, a bigger world....A truely beautiful artistic piece.

It is quite difficult to name a winner on this tracklist, all of the songs are just terrifically well executed!
If they would be one of the legends from the 80's and this album was released in the 80's I would have believed it too!

10 out of 10 for me. I recommend!
