Genre/Influences:
Post-punk,
punk-rock.
Background/Info:
Inadream
is a brand-new name based in Bochum
(Germany). This year they released their debut album featuring ten songs
dealing about personal feelings, social criticism, drugs and relationship
dramas.
Content:
The
opening part of the album clearly reveals the punk influence, which sounds
pretty British. One of the songs (cf. “And If”) even reminds me a bit of The
Clash. But quite progressively the songs are moving into melancholic passages
where the punk has been mixed with rock music. This album moves from rage
towards emotions.

+ + :
The debut songs are clearly reminding me of good-old punk souvenirs and
this is for sure the best exponent from the album. The opening cut “Romantic
Tragedy” and the harder “Love Me Or Leave Me” both are great cuts evoking the
glorious days of punk music. This band also enlarges the sonic horizon of
Echozone. Inadream doesn’t innovate, but their punk style is pure fun!

I regret the entire album doesn’t sound like the debut part. Punk music
is what this band does best! The rock approach and more melancholic parts left
me unmoved.
Conclusion:
This
is a work with two faces; a great good-old punk inspired part next to a more
sentimental, but less convincing rock part!
Best
songs: “Love Me Or Leave Me”, “Romantic Tragedy”, “Black Bird”, “And If”.
