Der Tanz geht weiter!
[engl] Well, there we have the salad, encouraged by positive feedback Isolationsgemeinschaft just carry on instead of simply disbanding after the first tape and the consequent LP to live on as a legend forever and ever. And if you then put on something like this LP, then at least I'm very glad that it wasn't a flash in the pan. We're still digging deep into the early 80's, citing DAF, STAHLNETZ (with better lyrics), DEO and plenty of high profile pioneers of other styles, but finally getting to the heart of loose ends. "Der Tanz geht weiter" is a bit darker than the debut, but it also perfects the sound to such an extent that I can hardly avoid giving it full points, because there's not much room for improvement anymore. Completely successful retro trip that sounds so modern, as if there had never been a tape twist and a missing rewind bolus. Oh, if such a band had actually existed in the eighties, we would have been spared a lot of crap. - Ox- Format

[engl] No, Instagram didn’t put out a vinyl album just yet, this I.G. stands for Isolationsgemeinschaft and this is their debut! They play a very German-sounding form of restless cold-wave, which is reasonable considering the duo’s Berlin residence. Synths and drum machines lead the path forward out of a neon-lit ’80s bunker into, well, a very similar-looking ’20s bunker. I’m reminded of Voice Farm, Vono, and that brief intersection where NDW bands revolving around the ZickZack label encountered the Sky Records synth scene that preceded it, a nice pairing of ’70s synth worship and ’80s post-punk paranoia. I.G. are certainly closer to the post-punk paranoia side of things, with many of these songs sounding as though they’re being tailed by a dark figure shrouded in a long trench coat, even if it turns out it’s only one of those Drab Majesty mimes looking to score party drugs. A genre exercise for sure, complete with some subtle Kraftwerk rips here and there (let the electronic group who has never ripped Kraftwerk cast the first stone), but it’s pleasant enough, or should I say unpleasant enough, that Isolationsgemeinschaft receives a synth-wave passing grade if not high honors. - Yellow Green Red- Format
