    Press Reviews
    An Australian band who is releasing their new mini-album on a Belgian label? Well that's the underground and be thankful that it exists as Zeitgeist's latest release tops everything I heard from the band so far 'cos if I may say so, it feels like 'Neurotic & Latonic' is the end point of the final Zeitgeist sound! For those who don't know, Zeitgeist are an Australian darkwave band, but they mix up their sound with some avant garde. They do that with adding a sort of Diamanda Galas atmosphere or fitting some unexpected violin sound. But don't think Zeitgeist are that difficult, as they can easily please the Goth fans who are into Die Untoten or Christian Death (they even cover 'Romeo's Distress') and even if Zeitgeist do have their own sound, they are still the kind of band who can be linked to the old Goth school. But instead of being a copy of their heroes, they do something new with it and that graces them. On the final track 'Tormentum' there is even place for some dance-Goth that can be perfectly played at a Goth party!!! - The Original Sin (BELGIUM)
