SILENCE IS SEXY continues Einsturzende Neubauten's explorations of individual sounds and anti-sounds. On the title track, several passages of silence are broken only by the sound of singer Blixa Bargeld inhaling on a cigarette; but, given that this is an Einstnrzende Neubauten record, that sound is amplified enough for you to be able to taste his brand.
While the majority of the cuts uncoil slowly, sinister affairs constructed around Bargeld's debauched, lounge-crawling, after-hours aristocrat-on-hard-times vocals, there are a couple of danceable tracks. "Newtons Gravitatlichkeit" and "Zampano" both featuring pulsating bass lines and frenetic percussion; though both also have several time-signature changes that might prove hazardous on the dance floor. Collectors should note that initial copies of the CD included a second disc featuring the slithering 18 and-a-half minute "Pelikanol."
