"Les Jumeaux are great. This CD is nice especially the asian laden track "shin tiao", this is a smooth and fluid track with great vocals. The first track is a heavy and fast industrial track, great for running. The other CD Feathercut is equally good for different reasons. Plus Cobalt contains the remix of "Miracle Road" an amazing song. The original can be found on Feathercut."

"This CD is weird! Les Jumeaux (french for "twins") is a side project of the etherial/neoclassical goth pioneers In The Nursery with an absolutely different approach. Basing on electronica backdrop (think Underworld, Autechre, Orbital etc), Cobalt bears etherial, ambient and even jazz elements with great male and female vocals typical for ITN material. You absolutely don't have to like electronica (god knows, I don't!) to enjoy this CD. If you are interested in bands like Perfume Tree, recent Love Spirals Downwards, Frolic etc you are definitely going to appreciate this one. As for hardcore ITN fans: expect the unexpected!"
