After fifteen years, German ensemble Love is colder than Death is finally honoured with an extensive anthology. “Time” features 33 tracks in almost perfect chronological order on two Compact Discs. From their early phase, where they would mingle electronic sounds with ethnic- and medieval elements, up to the purist World Music approach of today, the listener can witness the band’s consequent artistic quest towards fulfilling their ultimate musical vision. The more time passed, the more have Love is Colder than Death been narrowing down their music towards its absolute essence – a drink from the musical fountain that mankind created via its history and the diversity of its cultures. TIME concludes with pieces from the group’s 2003-release, “Eclipse”, that may help in guessing the direction they will be moving in on their next album, planned for release late this year. Furthermore, they have included three unreleased tracks that will make this double album an essential buy for both novices and long time fans.
Danke fürs Freundsein! Ich kenne Eure Musik noch aus Teignmouth-Zeiten, bin aber trotzdem sehr gespannt auf das neue Album; die Previews klingen sehr vielversprechend und machen Appetit auf mehr!
