KARL MOHR's eighth compact disc release and 35th collection of songs, TOOLS FOR THE ANALOG REVOLUTION, brings us another explosive blast of epic synth rock with environmental anthems and broken love songs. This collection of distorted electronic music explores uncharted musical territory and taboo green politics. Almost three years in the making, TOOLS represents the next phase of the KARL MOHR electronic music journey. The usual wide range of genres and moods from goth rock and electro to hard house and techno provide a strong undercurrent of darkwave, with an amplified political message this time around. Strong on vocals and drama, this is a heavy-duty ride. Electric guitars work with tech-beats and distorted synthesizers. The final cut, an adventurous 17 minute club remix of Eating Green Solar Cars, is a dizzying ride through the sparking cathodes of a restless mind.
