Album Notes & Community Reviews

Seeking to expand upon their monumental debut, the German synth-pop group incorporated live rock instrumentation and over thirty guest musicians into these sessions. The heavily orchestrated, conceptual album presents a significantly grander, more atmospheric pop soundscape than their earlier sequencer-driven hits.
