It appears that Evils Toy has been able to shed the stereotypical German
electro sound with this new album. While "Human Refuse" was a pile of sorely
derivative tracks that were never quite self-sufficient, "Morbid Mind" exudes
many of their old mannerisms in favor of a more refined and crisp sound. Only
one tiny influence remains, that of the lead singer Volker Lutz sounding
amazingly like Dominik Van Reiche of yelworC and amgoD, and that isn't likely
to ever change. The overall depth and complexity of the music has increased
dramatically and as a result the album actually maintains a strong cohesiveness
that never existed previously. Most of the programming is extremely robust and
many of the tracks encourage the audience to get up and dance themselves until
they pass out. A definite improvement over their previous work which suggest
that Evils Toy might be a band to watch closely for a new trend of electro in
near future.
