This is a very good album, except just one song,"we share our mother's health." My favourite song is "Silent shout." I like The Knife. Pradeep age 7 .

One of the greatest sounding records ever designed, seriously. There is an approach, almost entirely contained within electronic music, very dear to my heart, and that is producing tracks that seem to have had no human contact before you arrived. Sure, you read the reviews, listen to the MP3s floating around, have you hipster friends inanely hyping it up, but when you give it time to settle down and swim around your mind for a while, it seems like an untouched world. That doesn't mean that the music lacks emotion, just that there is no immediately recognisable human emotion beneath the surface to sink your proverbial teeth into; like, there is no happy, angry or sad, just atmosphere and space and your own thoughts. This can often be more powerful than straightforward aggression or sob stories over guitars, so it's delightful to hear a record that delivers this as expertly as Silent Shout. There are vocals, sure, but even these seem to have all humanity sucked out of them. All we are left with is a vacuum of sound, and that is impressive enough to make me forget the major missteps that occur as this record spins, particularly towards the end. Oh, life!
Sheer luck... March 25, 2008 Mark C. Danzig lll (Seattle, WA United States) having heard one song on KEXP, I was intrigued enough to find out about Knife--and remembered that the vocalist here did 'what else is there?' All I can say is this is mysterious, dark and dreamy-the compositions and the things Karin does with her voice make her several cuts above the two chord flat-meandering s of many singers. ie She is brilliant! More than awesome. much more My only confusion is that there are listings of a 4 CD box-is this true? I have the 3 disc
The best album of 2006 May 18, 2007 Dreaming (Australia) 2 out of 8 found this review helpful
One of my favourite tachno albums ever is the Knife's Silent Shout, is an album I accidently purchased but that is irrelevant, as this is a review.
The album opens with the melancholic Silent Shout which was my early favourite, however the album hits a peak with Neverland, which for me is the albums best song. It reminded me of a less harsh version of Bjork's Pluto, but had the same affect, and is a far better song, not that I don't like Pluto by Bjork. The lead single, We Share Our Mother's Health is probably the most commercial sounding song on the CD except for the follow-up Like A Pen, which happens to be one of my favourites. Track 9, From Off To On, is another of my favourites also.
Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys good electronic music.

As interesting as it is different. January 26, 2007 Adrian Blacksmith (Harrogate) 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
Having waited for this, their latest album, for quite a while, I could not help but get my hopes up. I wasn't dissapointed, but mildly suprised. This is very different from their second album 'Deep Cuts' and probably closer to their first. One cannot help but wonder how they keep coming up with such origional music. Right from the start you are introduced to hypnotic and almost dreamlike music that will be unlike anything else you will have experienced before. Why only four stars you ask. One simple reason; I loved Deep cuts too much and nothing can beat that for me.
