ON TEN: 8/10

      Take a step to your window and gaze out slowly and carefully. The record spins on the phonograph and the slight scratching us the only sound you hear. You find yourself distracted and look away from the window... something catches your eye and you spin back to see a pale face staring back at you, and before you can emit even the slightest sound you're assaulted by it's scream. You've now entered the very powerful world of images created by Samsas Traum's first official full length release.

      It's true, my experience with Samsas Traum was born from their second release Oh Luna Mein, and definately there is much change that happened to Samsas Traum's sound between this album and the next. Where Oh LUna Mein felt much like a journey through space on Albator's great pirate ship, Die Liebe Gottes comes across more like the journey through a bizarre horror film. Imagine the queer film techniques used by Dario Argento or David Lynch (à la Eraserhead) to help guide your imagination through this intense musical experience.

      My mind can't escape the cacophony of this release, perhaps the noisiest work by Samsas Traum recorded yet, this album is not for those who have difficulties with cacophonous screams and varying waves of sonic assault. This is not an everyday album either. It requires a specific desire to listen to chaos, and a readiness to find your ears under a continous blast of insanity.

      The blood splatters on the wall, and he sits there staring at it all slowly slide down the vertical white surface, pooling on the fake wooden floor. Inside the room with him, the beast continues to shread at his still corpse and the moment fades to black.
