a Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Alwa Glebe has had a long and distinguished career before arriving at this album. She sings with a commanding presence in her native German. The music is sparse and eerie and her voice has a tangible sadness to it.
"Wahnsinn" has an eighties flavored beat that supports her lament.
"An der Bruche Stand" is curiously like a song by Grace Jones, all-feral poise and languid beats.
"Komm mit mir" is a trance-like dream of a song. Glebe's dark vamping is heard to its greatest effect.
"Nichts ist Mehr wie es war" is seductively paced. This is a brave and lovely album.
