Shoegazing has never been far from electronica's heart, and on THE HUMBUCKING COIL, B. Fleischmann brings the two even closer together. "Broken Monitors" has the hazy atmosphere that has brought Ulrich Schnauss so much notoriety recently, but with a bit more of the rock elements. Fleischmann doesn't experiment with noise as much as he did on WELCOME TOURIST (which is a bittersweet relief)--the instrumentals now bear a strong resemblance to Schnauss' work, though not enough to be a rip-off. Instead, they share the same mood and sense of drift, while keeping a strong melodic sense. Even the slightly awkward vocals on "Gain" and "From To" aren't enough to sink the dreamy feeling. "Aldebarian Waltz" closes things on an slowly-growing, epic note. Quite nice overall.
