[ Integration press page 1 ]

Emotional, sincere and full of life, the six songs on Integration bring the listener through a wide range of intense human expression. Maria's vocals are powerful and heartfelt; she brings out the essence of each song through her eloquent lyrics and beautiful, impressive harmonies.

When asked how this music differs from Battery and Ivoux, Maria replies, "The power is still there, its just focused in a different direction. A lot of Battery, especially Aftermath, was profoundly angry and bitter. With Frozen [an album released by Ivoux - the side project by all three members of Battery] the songs were slower, more lush - but also full of the darker emotions: despair, betrayal, the death of winter. Integration is an album full of love and gratitude, joy and wonder... just another exploration on the vast plain of human emotion." So, What's the Difference?
