STAHLWERK 9 — 1905

�These recordings from 2005 celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first russian revolution. Slow collages of long symphonic samples and orchestral movements, creating a grievous and anxious atmosphere: commonly speaking, it can be compared to those dark postindustrial soundscapes known from works of Turbund Sturmwerk, Inade, Toroidh, A Challenge Of Honour, Predominance and alikes. One of the points of references is the famous movie "Battleship Potemkin" (1925) by Sergei M. Eisenstein, which can be a good visual following for the album - on the dark-ambient background, there are various russian choir singing, including well-known songs like "Warszawianka" and "Internationale".� [Dmitry Vasiliev IEM magazine]
