A bit more variance in terms of these aspects would have rounded everything out. Other than that minute observation, The Sun & The Neon Light is a fantastic album.
-
What impresses most of all about this album, however, is the accomplishment and confidence with which it's constructed, and the economical way Merziger and Kammermeier make use of the huge array of colours and sounds at their disposal.
-
The result is simple and sparse, but more satisfying than heavier-handed electronic projects.
-
There’s other fun songs on The Sun, but nothing that sustains itself as consistently as “Charlotte” and “Numbers.”
-
It seems they have forgotten that no matter how appealing this concept is to them, nothing is more appealing for the listener than experiencing the artists as they really are, not as they want to be.
-
Effectively reinventing their sound with these glooomy anthems, Booka Shade should still rock the superclubs with ease. But some may miss the clever duo known for the carefree pulse of singles. [July 2008, p.94]
-
It’s not a complete washout; there are indeed some promising moments. Unfortunately, none of them get developed enough to compensate for the blandness of the rest of the album.
