The new Squaremeter is a big change, or perhaps it's just a refreshing break for mister Panacea. The fact that it's been hardly a year since the last new Squaremeter album makes it hard to be upset about the change in direction.

Playing the Frozen Spark feels like floating through a dark Squaremeter dream. I recognize alot of the samples from nearly all the earlier albums, so it's almost kind of like a disturbed reunion of sorts. If there are dark evil Yoga people, this is the music they would play while they do their excercises.

I was pretty turned off at first by the huge Lustmord likeness to it, but I've come to find it's awesome working/reading music. Whereas Lustmord usually gets me in the mood to be hung from a ceiling in a rusty jail cell. So long as Panacea doesn't stick too long around the heavily dark ambient genre I'll be pretty satisfied with this album.Squaremeter
