3 stars An exciting turn of events.

Emeralds: Just to Feel Anything (a seven track 2012 release), displays maturity and a clear consolidation of a distinguishable and more personal electronic/rock music language.

For starters, to set this work in a proper coordinate Progressive Music wise, Emeraldsī kinship with the Krautrock styling is tamed down in favour of more friendly electronic music approaches but not in its sense of experimentation nevertheless a more controlled one.

This disruption actually works out most of the time not always (Everything Is Inverted & Just to Feel Anything) but the final outcome throws more favorable results than drawbacks.

This is the kind of album that sets a turning point in an artist careerīs future as it also will divide its followers in between purists and welcoming listeners.

Anyway beyond all taggings and markets, this Emeralds album shows a healthy variety in its music composition, thus opening all kind of doors for possible future albums.

A reasonable amount of very good tracks and just plain good ones, opposite the before mentioned weaker couple.

To rate it fairly from one to five, I can not help thinking that the best is yet to come from this Cleveland/USA electronic music trio and with this kind of artistic spirit it looks closer than ever. What is worth listening truly deserves attention.
