5.0 out of 5 stars Very Very Very Good, Mar 5 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Salvation (Audio CD)
This album is great and beyond words. The synths are sparkling, original and clean on this album - OK, all except for a lack of taste on the song "Control". Flame, Soul Messiah, Monkey in the Moon - all are such great songs that they are some of the best writen in the late 90's. As a keyboard programmer myself, this is all very original and good programming - not casio presets as suggested by a previous review can be found. I wouldn't be a good person if I didn't encourage you to acquire this album immediately. A MUST HAVE.

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPER COMEBACK, Feb 16 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Salvation (Audio CD)
ALPHAVILLE HAS ALWAYS HAD A RETRO 'DISCO' SOUND WITH UNFORGETTABLE HITS LIKE 'FOREVER YOUNG'....MARIAN GOLD'S
VOICE IS SO UNIQE......ITS ALWAYS RECOGNIZABLE BEYOND DUPLICATION.
THIS ALBUM IS SIMPLY BRILLIANT.....THE VOCAL HARMONICS MERGE IN A SYMPHONY WITH COMPLEX LYRICS. ITS A SHAME THAT ALPHAVILLE'S MUSIC IS ALMOST NEVER PLAYED THROUGH MASS MEDIA RADIO WAVES.
I SIMPLY LOVE THIS ALBUM....IT WON'T GET BORING....BY THE WAY WHERE IS THE 'SALVATION' BALLAD EHHH???

4.0 out of 5 stars Back to Their Roots, Feb 12 2004
By 
ogryzek (Chicago, IL, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Salvation (Audio CD)
There is no discussion as to divinity of the first two albums. And we all know that the later works were somewhat 'uneven'.
Salvation is a swing back to the days of glory (in a kind of 'if it works why f**k with it?' way). While not quite there yet, this album is quite 'playable' (so it will grow on you... in a good sense). You will not find here any smash hits, yet if those songs were released in days of Forever Young or Afternoons In Utopia they could serve as great B-Sides. So as you make your own 'The Best Of' compilation you will be able to use a few of the songs featured here, as not to loose your breath in between 'Sounds Like A Melody' and 'Universal Daddy'.

Please note that this is actually a 1999/2000 re-release for the US market of the original 1997 Salvation album - same stuff + a few new remixes + new artwork.

Bottom Line:
If you are Alphaville fan - a definitive must...
If you are into 80's synthpop - a good album to have...
If you just like good music - you might get by without it but it's not like you throwing your money away... so get it...
