2 stars The first deception of Tangerine Dream 80s' works. Also the last album with Franke. They have lost their spacey touch in favor of "ballads".

The first track, Tyger, is a cheesy pop-electro-song and features a female vocalist ! Hard to believe it's hardly the same persons which recorded Ricochet and Poland. Horrendous ! London sounds like a pale copy of Song of the Whale with vocals. Alchemy of The Heart starts well, but becomes uninspired and soppy. Smile attempts to re-create their synthetic 80s' early sound, but get lost with other vocals. 21st Century Common Man Part 1 is an ok catchy electronic sequenced song and Part 2 is average.

I will give 2 stars for Froese's guitar solos and 21st Century Common Man Part 1. Underwater Sunlight was TD' last good release from the 80s'.

Modrigue | 2/5 |
