Genre/Influences: Electro-Pop, Dark-Pop.

Format: Digital, USB.

Background/Info: Slovakian duo Ondrej Pešek – Sissi Enns are back on track. The newest opus was released by the end of 2020 featuring thirteen songs. 

Content: The album takes off with a rather mystic intro evolving into a harsher Industrial approach with male and female vocals on top. The main singer however remains Sissi Enns, which doesn’t exactly have a graceful timbre of voice. But that perfectly fits with the somewhat rough and darker approach in sound. The lyrics are sung in Slovakian, which injects a kind of ‘Balkan-Pop’ touch to the work. 

+ + + : I prefer the songs on, which Sissi Enns sings solo. She definitely injects something extra to the songs while there’s a noticeable match between singer and music. This is Electro-Pop with a rough and unpolished approach, which makes this album different from the average Electro-Pop productions. I also noticed songs with carrying choruses, creating a kind of contract between a rough sound production and a chorus that you’ll keep in mind. Last, but not least I also have to say a word about the great artistic artwork.

– – – : Singing in your Mother tongue is often a challenge when it’s not an international language like English. It creates a ‘local’ Pop-style, which will have some difficulties to conquer a wider audience. 

Conclusion: The least I can say is that has seriously evolved and improved most aspects of the production and especially compared to their debut work.

Best songs: “Buď Môj Strach”, “Karavána”.

Rate: (7).

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
