Free Music Notes for WAT
Free Music Review: Pleasantly Suprised
Hit: 5 Stars
After a 7 year hiatus and a few albums that were not their best, Laibach has come back. I didn't know what to think when I saw this at the record shop down the street but was really happy once I got it home. Highly recommended.Free Music Review: A real Laibach album
Hit: 5 Stars
Having been a fan of Laibach since the 1980s, I am glad to see them returning to form. While albums like Nato and Jesus Christ Superstars had their moments, Laibach seemed on the verge of turning themselves into a novelty act with their (usually superior to the original, but still ridiculous) cover songs and mediocre forays into techno. Whatever happened to them in the last 7 years is a good thing, because Wat is an even more successful return to the form that made them brilliant than Front 242's rather successful Raw & Pulse recordings. There are no silly or disposable tracks on Wat. If Laibach tours the US for Wat and releases 10 more albums in their pioneering vein (but now with better production!), they'll easily make up for the torture of the Jesus Christ Superstars tour, the Also Sprach Johann Paul II project, and their 7 year hiatus from releasing new Laibach albums.Free Music Review: buy it. buy it now.

Just got this from Mr. FedEx guy today. This does not sound like Nitzer Ebb, this does not sound like Rammstein, it sounds like Laibach. There is no other way to describe it. They have evolved past the guitar-heavy nonsense in 'Jesus Christ Superstars' and come up with something entirely new. I would not have it any other way. This is art at its purest: satirizing leftist and rightist agendas at once, occasionally with a dancy beat behind it.Anyone using the word 'electroclash' to describe Laibach needs a kick in the head.
Free Music Review: The Return of Laibach ?
Hit: 4 Stars
I would consider this the best Laibach release since Opus Dei.With the electronic nature of this album, one might want to make comparisons to Kapital or NATO. However, it seems that Laibach are drawing much more heavily from their earlier works and this album could be more easily associated with Rekapitulcaija or the self-titled Laibach.
WAT will make a good introduction to new listeners who have missed the last couple of decades of Laibachkunst.
I can only hope that with the vitality of this new work, Laibach and NSK end their period of hibernation and once again become more active on all fronts.
Free Music Review: !Tanz Mit Laibach!
Hit: 5 Stars
This CD is amazing! It sold out in a week from our local shop. Aside from the vocals the music itself sounds very little like old Laibach...there are still some choirs and orchestra bits, but most of that crap has been replaced by a 909, distortion pedal and Reaktor...it rocks! Stiff grizzly beats with minimalist synth basses and Laibach's trademark demonic vocals. Achtung is a standout but all the tracks are good...the CD also includes a video for Tanz Mit Laibach! Buy it. You won't regret it.
