senior could be a late work of Röyksopp. It is not getting younger. According to Junior, a juvenile party album, follows after just 18 months "senior" - a purely instrumental and the album of the Norwegians with the enormous Song - Remix and output. Svein Berge and Torbjorn Brundtland have created "Senior" is a concept album. Life and Death: If Junior "Life", was then Senior - paranoid and broken on the long nights - "Death".
Even the death of the hit album: Senior is seen as a whole, the tracks form a 48-minute unit. Melodies appear and disappear in bass-dominated tracks, synths and swirling pedal steel guitar walls. No more need masses and Pop to be - just in time for the pension remains substantial.
The songs on "senior" was established in 2009 in parallel with "Junior." A ramp for the rest of song sketches is a Senior not, but more the two sides of a strip of 2 x 2 or vinyl. Well, if it really were: an album titled "Junior / Senior". One should not separate what really belongs together. What is the 2005 album "The Understanding" as well made it was up and down: the tempo, melody, vocals. What is "Junior" is missing, has "senior" - and vice versa.
Nevertheless, the delirium and the consequences - that was so poetic and often told without words.
