I got a problem with this release. At first glance - it's uncommon, ambitious futurepop with great depth, not typical like other EBM records - just hard beat, few melodies and harsh vocal. Beyond Flatline sometimes gets more instrumental, sometimes has spoken or just softly sung vocals. I'd like to give it something like 4.0, but unfortunately the songs are not as enjoyable as they could be, like in The Soul Is In The Software for example. This album is like IDM in all those electronic genres - deep and inspiring, but sometimes just not pleasant enough.
