The Bridge is a mix of dark electro-pop songs underlined by repetitious sound patterns and punctuated by appliance noises. This is really old-school electronica from the post-punk age like they do not make it anymore.Robert Rental and Thomas Leer were clearly pioneers of the genre and this album shows their art at its best. It is remniscent of others such as Cabaret Voltaire and Throbbing Gristle , but in more melodic and also more electronic. Very hypnotic and beautiful. This is the cd version of the Bridge from 1992 on The Grey Area Of Mute Records (Bridge 1cd) , The original lp was on Industrial Records (IR 0007) in 1979.
