The intersection of New Wave lyricism and experimental spirit
This masterpiece sublimates Berlin's portrayal of the complexities of love and life with the aesthetics of synth pop. It's a hot emotion nestled within a cold sound.
Terri Nunn's crystal clear vocals intertwine with David Diamond's delicate synth work to create a unique worldview. The title track "Love Life" poetically sings about the contradictions of love, and the album carefully depicts the nuances of human relationships throughout. The production is also sophisticated, making this a masterpiece that occupies a special place in the world of 80s synth pop.
