      Front 242's music moves the body and the intellect with equal efficacy, and this album is definitive of that sound. Musician/programmers Patrick Codenys and Daniel Bressanutti brilliantly hold forth with multi-dimensional layers of percussion, noise, keyboards and spoken-word fragments. Gliding over and slashing through this thoughtfully aggressive din are lead singer Jean-Luc DeMeyer's low, ominous vocals. He deploys his trademark rumble with dangerous accuracy on the moody "Untold", with matter-of-fact despair on "Tragedy For You." "Rhythm Of Time" is an electro masterpiece, invigorating and foreboding. Backing singer Richard 23 is given the spoltlight on "Moldavia," with Codenys and Bressanutti adding colorful mutilation to his confident wail. Also of note are the chimerical instrumental pieces, in particular "Neurobashing" and the "hidden" track "HardRock." --Mark McCleerey
