Album of the Week: Blutengel’s Angel Dust
In case you hadn’t noticed, I’m a big fan of German gothic/industrial/synth-pop. I really couldn’t tell you why… I just love basically everything I hear. And Blutengel is no exception. I chose Angel Dust as my album of the week because I like the addition of Constance Rudert and Eva Pölzing.
