Album Description
With this release, the Birthday Massacre show us that they can write catchy songs while still keeping the overall feel dark and on the heavy side of spooky industrial synth-pop. The vocals of front-gal Chibi are decidedly unpretentious; they don’t fit the mould of anyone else, and she doesn’t hide her ability to actually sing behind effects. What starts out as a whisper with "Happy Birthday" soon builds to a fine dance number as things progress, and as if that isn’t enough to make the whole CD great, the programming and backups are complex and varied, with both guitars and keyboards rounding out the sound. Nothing boring or repetitive here. What other praises can I sing, other than to say that my volume kept going up and up. Can’t choose highlights because the whole thing is fantastic. Don’t waste another moment, pick a copy up.
