Die Kapelle "The Siege" (1987)

The Siege
release date: 1987
format: vinyl (SAM 23)
[album rate: 3 / 5] [3,12]
producer: Jens Walther
label: Sam Records - nationality: Denmark

2nd and final studio album by Die Kapelle, who has been expanded to a quartet by the inclusion of keyboardist and saxophone player Trond Clementsen.
Musically, the band has taken a step away from the dark and sinister gothic rock towards a more keyboard-founded synthpop universe seemingly inspired by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
