One star

ARE these people from Germany just having a laugh?

The Stadium Techno Experience (yeah, right) has got to be one of the most awful albums I have ever listened to.

The lyrics though, it has to be said, are very deep and meaningful.

Take one of the lines in Weekend - 'Respect to the man in the ice cream van.' Indeed.

The peroxide blond frontman cannot and does not sing, he just shouts out to the cheering crowds (obviously taken from another concert by another band).

I can't help feeling the group has just been given a flashy, all-singing, all-dancing keyboard from Santa as the whole album is amateurish.

In fact it sounds like something a group of teenage lads have put together on a wet Sunday afternoon when there's nothing better to do.

Every tune sounds the same and the bloomin' singer thinks he's the flaming pied piper on track four, it's laughable.

You would be forgiven for thinking this album was put together for a joke, it deserves one star just for the pure cheek of releasing such an atrocious pile of trash.
