Feindflug
Volk und Armee

Feindflug's incendiary mix of harsh electro 'n' WWII samples was exciting and fresh when they came out with their debut album, in 1997. Ten years on, it's wearing a little thin. The heavy sampled guitar riffs, the explosive beats, the war-movie samples...we've heard it all before on each and every one of Feindflug's releases.

The cover art on the digipak seems to point to an interesting examination of propaganda during the war, but--at least to an English speaker--the connection is lost with the music. Maybe we've yet to hear their best work, but I suspect not. I think the horse was DOA, but Feindflug are making a career of beating it.
