NEON RAIN - OF THE DEAD (3CD by Steelwork Machine)
Neon Rain started in 1998 with the release of a tape full of recordings made between 1992 and 1997. The last album was released four years ago and for now Neon Rain created an epic trilogy inspired by the first zombie movies of George A. Romero. This American movie maker combines intelligent social criticism and horror. He was one of the first moviemakers who made a big change in the horror genre. No gothic atmosphere anymore, like most moviemakers did before, with scenes from the 19th Century, but based in here and now. Neon Rain took three movies as the base for their music, Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead. The trilogy "Of the dead" was composed between 2005 - 2010. The CD's "A Night" and "A Dawn" were composed by Serge Usson and David Delwiche. "A Day" is composes by Serge Usson himself. Each CD has his own atmosphere. "A Night" has a nice mix between melancholic sounds, noise and is based on a song structure. "A Dawn" is more noise orientated with sampled voices, analog synthesizers and distorted guitar sounds melted together in abstract compositions. And at last "A Day" with industrial beats in different forms and intensity. I like this part of the trilogy most, because it combines all elements of the other CD's in one album. The artwork of the CD is well done, especially the inner sleeve has a beautiful design in a traditional way for this kind of music.Neon Rain takes time to create new work and I am looking forward to their next project, because this piece of music tastes for more.

Das “Of The Dead” stark werden würde, habe ich schon erwartet. Dennoch muss ich nun gestehen, dass das Gesamtergebnis noch überwältigender ausgefallen ist.
“Of The Dead” ist ein wahres Meisterwerk der verstörenden sowie atmosphärischen Tonkunst.
Respektvoll spreche ich jetzt schon von einem Klassiker und mein Dank für dieses grandiose Stück Musik geht an Steelwork Maschine. In diesem Sinne – Full House!

Fuck Yeah !

A german review of NEONRAIN - OF THE DEAD

Neon Rain – …Of The Dead

Fazit:

“…Of The Dead” benötigt ein riesiges Freizeitzeitfenster, ansonsten bleibt das Eintauchen in die phänomenalen Tiefen verwehrt, die dieses weitere Meisterwerk von Neon Rain auszeichnet, das nicht nur zu den Aushängeschildern des französischen Industrial/ Dark Ambient/ Electro gehört – meine absolute (Kauf-) Empfehlung!
