The remastered DeLuxe edition of Madrugada's debut album "Industrial Silence" is a 2-CD: CD 1 contains the remastered "Industrial Silence" as it was originally released in 1999. CD 2 contains tracks from all their early EP's and four previously unrelased demo recordings. The album is remastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound in New York. The CD comes with a 16 page booklet and liner notes by Pierre Perrone. Madrugada is a Norwegian group that reflects the mood of the new millennium: atmospheric, introspective, fluid, mysterious and sparse but elegant: A sort of melancholic road movie sound-track under the Northern lights. industrial silence is the artistic extension of the 4AD releases from the 80's (e.g., This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance etc). Industrial Silence is not a new age release but a post-modern one where the voice is used as an instrument in order to create introspec-tive beauty that reflects a modern sensitivity. An extraordinary mixture of American alternative rock and melancholy ala Mazzy Star, Jim Morrison. Chris Isaac and/or Grant Lee Buffalo. The songs on this album are focused around the Madrugada melancholy - soothing, grey, but still blistering blue. The superb Sirens starts like a Crime & the City Solution epos, a minimal, but enthralling guitar theme takes over, and leads the song into a demon-ridden panorama, saturated with emotions. Everything here fits like hand in glove: the repetitive bass foundation, the emotionally loaded guitar, the dynamic build-up of the song, the soothing break, the melody, the lyrics (apparently about feelings of existential solitude). Pure blue excellence!
