Hiylchis
The first three albums from this project were wonderful exercises in the melding of synth pop and melancholia that worked very well. Perhaps a less goth version of Depeche Mode. It didn't hurt their exposure that they were on the forefront of music television (back when said channels actually played videos), beaming their sound across the globe. But like the rest of you, I grew older and kind of lost track of these Norwegian guys. Musical tastes change. Through the years they have been productive however, releasing numerous albums that failed to have the impact of their early years. To this day mention A-ha to anyone from the 80's and undoubtedly the first response you'll receive is the video from Take On Me.

Which brings me to this album. Like the previous commenters have mentioned they seem to have returned to their old sound. Synth pop through and through with gentle sounds and Morten's almost impossibly high voice. Unfortunately I find it difficult to connect with these newer tunes as most of them sound disposable and easily forgettable. Gone is the gravitas and in its place are light, fluffy confection. It's their niche, their sound, but even for them this is sugary sweet. Where is the epic, lush sound of a track like Manhattan Skyline or the high speed ride like The Sun Always Shines on TV? Sunny Mystery is the standout track here with it's drive and attention to detail, but unfortunately it's placement near the end of the album is disappointing. They get back to their wheelhouse with Shadowside and Mother Nature Goes To Heaven, but the vast majority of this album is light on depth and a far cry from their greatest material.

I look forward to their latest album with the hopes that they can recapture their former brilliance, but at this point they remain a nostalgia act for me.

"The Bandstand", is one of the most well written tracks since the early days of "The Sun Always Shines on T.V.". This album is a mixed bag though. It should be totally synth oriented. Orchestral arrangements and real instruments on some tracks sparks quite a lot of the same material "Analogue" and "Lifelines" have.

This is where this band should be in their career. Doing what they are the best at. They've always been great story tellers through their music and this is a synth pop gem. This is a return to form without being too obvious. More of an update to the A-ha sound. My favorite track on this album is "Sunny Mystery" wow. Take a listen - rediscover this truly underrated band. Probably one of the most ignored fantastic groups of the last two decades.
