"Periodically a CD comes across my desk that leaves me totally breathless and excited beyond words. Behind The Scenes Homeless CD is just one of those works that made the heart palpitate and the blood rush like a torrid river through my veins. Everything about this music is flawless, from Melrow's self-harmony to the driving dance/goth grooves. Dare I say that it blows the Sisters of Mercy and The Merry Thoughts out of the water? If ever an underground work was ready for cross over appeal to the broadcast arena, this is the CD that can and should do it. To add more to the pot of good fortune, the US release has additional tracks, a remix by DJ Shok, one from Rogue of The Cruxshadows and the single version of the song human, currently available on MP3.com. This CD is getting a LOT of New York club play and with good reason. It appeals to both fans of synth-pop and goth rock without veering towards either side too heavily. Dare I say that this Cd is like a drug? Once you turn it on, you never want it to end. One can easily get mentally lost into the background choruses, which will spin your mind into a swirling dervish style of ecstasy. By the time you have played the CD for the third time in succession, which you will once you hear it in its entirety, you will be singing along to every song. Rather than belabor the issue with a song-by-song detail, just trust that every track on this CD is a mesmerizing masterpiece that you just MUST own. I know my next quest is to locate any other music by this band because I simply will not want go without any of their work. So in three words: BUY THIS NOW!"
