Background/Info:
Swedish industrial veteran Peter Andersson aka ‘Lina
Baby Doll‘ is back on track unleashing his newest opus featuring eight
songs.
Content:
“Staring At My Wall” moves on where previous releases
left off. Lina Baby Doll moves back to some early influences of industrial
music, but he also takes care to support his songs with an overwhelming dark
atmosphere. There’s an interesting progression in the songwriting, which also
reveals a few minimal-electro passages (cf. “Amphibian Shadow”), vague tribal
passages (cf. “Pasolini”) and even a pure old-fashioned industrial sound (cf.
“Let Go And Slip Away”) reminding me of Throbbing Gristle. On top of the songs
you also will hear the charismatic vocals of Lina Baby Doll.
+ + + :
Deutsch Nepal always has been rather unique in its
genre. There for sure is a link with old-school industrial music, but the
composition first of all reflects a very own approach mixing industrial with
electronics and other elements such as tribal and ritual music. The production
of the vocals is quite important. The artist’s way of singing has something
shamanic, inviting his followers to join in for a dark and industrial
transcendental trip. It’s a scary adventure accentuated by some lyrical,
disclaiming passages like ‘this is a terrible place to live in’ on the title
track. The last part of the album is absolutely worthy of examination and
leading the listener into a total apotheosis.

Deutsch Nepal is a project that never stops to evolve
and this new opus again sounds as a truly masterpiece.
Conclusion:
Deutsch Nepal moves back to early industrial music,
which has been mixed with a very personal and contemporary touch. The result is
a fascinating sonic travel.
Best songs:
“Staring At My Wall”, “Pasolini”, “Let Go And Slip
Away”, “These Eyes I Found Upon The Hills”.
