A late review of mixed inglish...
Just found this online. better late then never, right? This could be contender for worst review of us ever? read on -
Stasi
Mixed Inglish
CDEP-RIOT CLUB MUSIC
(Work Hard-PR)
It can’t be easy, knowing that your music is nothing but a half-decent regurgitation of another bands’ sound. Well, that’s exactly what Stasi have done. They’ve taken the sophistication and profound intensity of Radioheads’ “Kid A,” and merged it with the melancholic greatness of Radioheads’ “Amnesiac”. The overall result is not a good sound at all. This EP consists of 3 lengthy “songs” that are all strenuously repetitive and dull. The band lack originality and direction, which is evident throughout the EP. This is not to say, however, that they are not gifted musicians. The production, for example, is top-notch and the vocals are superb. But, they have enough musical ability to create their own sound instead of depending on Tom Yorke & co. to do it for them. A disappointing waste of talent.
