Review
In the Frankfurter Allgemeine, the album was described as an expression of a negative attitude against the usual self-exploitation in the music industry without the lyrics and the music could be reduced to this. The lyrics of the band are not plate slogans, but marked by " pointed, slightly piksende critique of consumerism ".
In the time the album was considered a "small conservative revolution ", was prepared in the critique of consumption only for a new generation shaped by the recession again. The music was indeed from known ingredients ( short supply in guitars, revival of the German New Wave, Beat - Beat, Electronic and Punk) composed, but still would animate for monitoring.
The UniSpiegel described in a very positive review music as " catchy [n ] Knarzrock with Eighties - NDW - impact " with " oblique [n ] sociocritical romantic [n ] text [n ] ".
