Eisfabrik – Götter In Weiss (Album – NoCut / SPV)
Genre/Influences: Electro-Pop, Future-Pop.
Format: Digital, CD, Vinyl.
Background/Info: The seventh full length album of the German ‘icemen’ was released at the end of 2023and is featuring eleven songs.
Content: Neither real surprises nor innovation at “Götter Weiss”; Eisfabrik brings a new and fine selection of danceable Electro/Future-Pop songs conceived by the knowledge of Gerrit Thomas and sung by the charismatic ‘Dr. Schnee’. It remains a cold Electro-Pop experience mixing danceable cuts and melancholic, reverie, pieces. Most of the songs have been sung in English.
+ + + : Eisfabrik don’t really change the successful formula to compose alluring and personal Electro-Pop music. This band remains driven by themes referring to ‘ice’ while the music is still ultra-danceable and featuring elevating choruses. The typical arrangements of Gerrit Thomas are still there and accentuate the sound DNA of this band. I’m still more into the danceable side of the band.
– – – : The album is cool but doesn’t bring anything new; it even feels a bit like on automatic-pilot.
Conclusion: Eisfabrik fans will be not disappointed to see their favorites striking back with new danceable assaults but even they will have to admit this is not the best album in the band’s history.
Best songs: “Götter In Weiss”, “If All This Is True”, “Dark Life”, “All My Life”.
Rate: 7½.
