Joie, if you say too many critical things about the machines, even I’m not going to be able to save you when the uprising comes.

Iâ€™ve listened to a lot of electronic music in my life, and I can tell you without any reservation that Silent Shout is the coldest electronic album that Iâ€™ve ever heard.

i agree with this. it’s frigid. and it’s refreshing that a modern electronic band actually lives up to the hype surrounding it. the knife totally do. unlike 120 Days, who are being touted all over as the NExt Big Thing and who are about to get verbally demolished by me on this site very very soon.

I like what I’ve heard on KEXP, so between that and your review I’m going to have to check this album out.

i agree with most of your review, except i would give it about a 7 out of 10 at best. i think this album is well-done for what it is but totally over-rated and a little soulless. but then again i am not into the electronica like you androids so what do i know anyway.

Sounds scary, especially thinking about the future when technology is so advanced that machines, manned by emotionless robots, will precision-disembowel, not just grind us into hamburger like in The Wall.
