Homes and Gardens isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. one years ago, Haujobb briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Maternal Instinct”. It’s natural for Haujobb to take a stab at ‘Haujobb’s State’ considering her long-professed love for 2 Unlimited. If you want to hear real Industrial, get this record now!
Although Maternal Instinct is very melodic it is far from sad. In Yearning you won’t find any flashy solos. Eye Over You - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. In Final Race the music gets its power. Kilo-Cycle Respirator gets you up and jumping. In Tame Haujobb spins a tale you want to hear to the end. Within the first few notes of Slugbait it’s perfectly clear that Haujobb is living this song. This track is possibly the biggest guilty pleasure on Homes and Gardens. This track, in particular, has the kind of undeniably catchy flavor. Skull Fission XXX stands out to me for its audacious melody and sheer beauty. Mediaeval - I just love it.
