With an approach like that, the question is û how much can you   
change? The new album actually brings about quite a bit of       
change: while keeping the trademark structures of the debut, it  
appears to be less aggressive and straightforward on first       
listening. Generic acid lines are very sparingly used, instead   
this album is full of audio trickery, washes of noises, sound    
bits and oppressive atmospheres, emphasizing the industrial      
aspects of the 13TH MONKEY sound.

The opening title "Korrosionsangriff" sets the mood for this     
trip, beneath crackling noises and dark, brooding atmospheres    
the rhythm clocks in well below 140 bpm. "Piezo Resistance" is a 
prime choice for rhythmic noise DJs, "Kryophaze" is a superb cut 
of industrial acid. Most tracks are around 145 bpm and superbly  
bass-heavy, typified amongst others by "Re:Thrilled", a nice and 
vaguely EBM-ish example of the more subversive side of the 13TH  
MONKEY: moody, threatening, full of tension, a track so          
ultimately urban in sound. Towards the end of the CD the band    
launches two longer tracks: the ten-minute rave bastard "Sojfu", 
sporting surprising breaks and Japanese vocal samples, and the   
epic closing title "Guenon", starting with the quasi-rhythmic    
structures generated by carefully layered noises, before the     
kickdrum comes in and out time and again over the whole sixteen  
minutes of this standout piece.
