Vitro is a breath of fresh air
08/18/1999
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I've been a long time fan of electronic/rock groups KMFDM, Gravity Kills, Junkie XL, Pitchshifter, etc. but they all carry a heavy, dark edge. I was glad to hear Vitro's new album. Its a lighter twist on the whole industrial scene. Similar to Econoline Crush, they keep a nice quick drum beat with guitars, a great british voice, and classic acidy Roland tr303(?) sounds. Very catchy, very interesting. Nothing is off target on this album... how could it with Rick Rubin producing (produced God Lives Undewater). So, if you like Econoline Crush, Junkie XL, then try this out even if your a hardcore techno fan like myself."
They, of course, overrate it, but it deserves a listen.

"This is an electronic alternative album that is caught quite uncommercially-favorably between industrial and pop-rock. It's been described as a brighter NIN and a darker, harder Arkarna. I don't think it has the (sometimes obnoxious) bite of JunkieXL, but that can be a good thing. Mostly, though, is a condemnation in that nothing particularly stands out or sounds radically different from anything else. Repeated listens would surely produce favorites, but to "earn" a listen a catering, inane single must break into commercial radio, which obviously didn't happen...a small shame. This is a pretty safe bet."

"This is one of my favourite records in my collection right now, and it's been going nonstop in my disc-changer for the past six or seven months that I've had it. They are a cool band who got recognition for remixing Silverchair in the first place, and now have released an album similar to Junkie XL's work. It is fast, trancy, and would tear up any dancefloor in sight if given the chance. This is frest and exciting, and aside from Junkie XL, I can't compare this to anyone. Weird beats and simmering rythmns help to balance out the even stranger (kind of snotty) vocals here. My favourite tracks are "Orange", "Useless Things", "Liquid", "Cynics", and "Set It Down". Also, maybe buy the new MDFMK album."
