5 out of 5 stars Essential music for any rock'n'roll fan........2000-05-20

I've always been frustrated by the lack of success Fury In The Slaughterhouse have gotten on this side of the Atlantic. When "Mono" was first released, it missed everyone's attention except a few important people -- namely, critics like myself. Their next US album, "The Hearing and the Sense of Balance," was also unfairly overlooked, and thus, "Brilliant Thieves," the band's best album to date, was never released over here.

If I have but one impact as a critic, it is that I hope to boost the sales of Fury albums. Trying to compare Fury to just about anything is impossible, but take the more decadent musical aspects of U2 and INXS and blend them with the subtle lyrical inflections of Depeche Mode. This is only a starting point, however.

Fury is one of those bands that really can't be compared to anything, but I find myself drawing comparisons to them all the time.

"Brilliant Thieves" opens with a clarinet solo and wanders into "Bring Me Home," the ultimate tour song. Over the course of the rest of the album, listeners are treated to nearly every emotion available. If you want to try something unique, different and intensly beautiful, "Brilliant Thieves" (or the best of Fury, "Super Fury") cannot be highly recommended enough.

5 out of 5 stars intelligent English-language pop from Germany.......2000-04-28

Don't let Falco or Rammstein scare you away from German music. Fury makes fantastic music and I sure hope that they will get some attention on this side of the Atlantic. I am a big fan of this CD. If you are looking for a CD which is more upbeat that U2 without a superhard edge, this is the one for you.
