More than half a decade has elapsed since the release of Lali Puna‘s recent album, but the band's impact on the climate of electronic rock music remains palpable. Along with sister-group The Notwist, this Weilheim quartet have helped map out the musical landscape for modern, experimentally minded pop music, and Our Inventions finds Lali Puna continuing to push the frontiers of their medium. Our Inventions exhibits the hallmarks of an album spun from intensive studio-bound introspection. All the elements are at once precision engineered and delivered with absolute heartfelt conviction; yet you can always hear the soul behind these machines. The sublime, virtuoso electronic arrangements of Our Inventions directly lock onto the record's recurrent key themes as this is an album that's made for and about the modern world, inundated with technology, concerning itself with the driving forces of progress and technological obsession.
