Churning rythyms borrowed from genres as abstracted as funk and poppy synth, with sexually laden inuendo laying the pavement, they encumber all that is mysterious in human desire. The twosome have a distinct chemistry which only adds to the whole bittersweet arrangement, again captivating their audience visually.... Veronika Fevers~ Detroit music journalist diva
Review of Dorstein by Joe
Ahh, Dorstein...
With little thought to the conventional, Dorstein has gifted the world with a new style, difficult to imagine in this modern existence, having crafted a most visceral melody, and if I may...a beat that speaks to the Id on a primal level.
A vision of the more basic of instincts is presented in the works of this band, and the relative progression, as such, of their lyrics
engages the listener to feel, rather than think about, matters of sensual importance...not to mention a deep seated "animalistic" view of modern thought, as applied to secular life today.
Kudos to this band for their non-conformist attitude to the mores' and taboo subjects of current society.
Jung would be proud...
