X MARKS THE PEDWALK
TRANSFORMATION

MESH1006   |   18.09.2020   |   CD + DIGITAL


After their highly acclaimed “Secrets” the German electro underground pioneers X MARKS THE PEDWALK took three years to release their 10th studio album entitled “Transformation”.
This time Sevren Ni-Arb and Estefanía focus on moments of personal change. “Transformation” deals with inner barriers, people and behavior that emotionally restrict us and from which we want to free ourselves. It´s about recognizing one’s own weaknesses to convert them into new energy.
And so „Transformation“ is just as powerful and thrilling as it is touching, melancholic and emotional. X MARKS THE PEDWALK draw from thirty years of experience and present 10 tracks of modern, varied electro-pop with retro charm.

An electropop powerhouse Release Music Magazine / 10.2020

… another step forward. A sizeable one at that… Walk Away and Sunrise are symphonic synthpop songs, the former dark and velvety, the latter brighter and silkier, while If I Stay and Waiting are both stripped down to the barest of elements. All four of these tracks are gems…

once again a fantastic album that is technically on par with its predecessor ‘Secrets‘. Hats off to this absolutely recommendable Synth Pop album. Electrozombies / 09.2020

Für klanglichen Hochgenuss seit Jahrzehnten sorgt André Schmechta alias Sevren Ni-Arb mit seinem Electro-Gespenst X Marks The Pedwalk. Dieses Album ist sicherlich eines der besten … Unter.Ton / 09.2020

X Marks The Pedwalk isn’t trading in the same sounds as they did in 1995 – or 2010 for that matter – but their forays into fresh territory are far more inspiring than throwback retreads. I Die: You Die / 09.2020

So wandlungsfähig die Musik, so wandlungsfähig auch einmal mehr Sängerin Estefanía, die erneut das Gros der Vocals übernimmt und in Sachen Stimmigkeit das perfekte Tüpfelchen auf dem „i“ abgibt. Sonic Seducer /10.2020

Die Klaviatur der Emotionen perfekt umgesetzt … Klanggewaltige Bilder…. Das Album ist erfrischend, schnell und dennoch voller Tiefgründigkeit, eine perfekte Mischung für jede Lebenslage. Orkus /10.2020

Das zehnte Album von X-MARKS THE PEDWALK begibt sich auf eine schillernde Reise durch den eigenen, elektronisch geprägten Klangkosmos. Made to listen loud. Musikreviews.de /10.2020

this is for sure the album with the most potential hits featured
