Edgy, even for Enigma, but MC pulled it off!

Not just any work that Enigma puts out is going to be popular with the masses. This album, however has the potential to become that popular collection. More so than any other project that Michael Cretu has created. I've noticed by reading other reviews of "Seven Lives Many Faces" that many Enigma's "die hard" fans are disappointed with this. It is true when most of them say that the first four albums are different from the fifth, sixth and finally, this one, the seventh. I have just about everything that Enigma has put out. So I can say for a fact that this one is different, but in a good way. It has very catchy rhythms plugged into fantastic melodies that blends hip hop with classical and of course, Michael's unmistakable vocals. The first four tracks are my favorites....

I consider myself a big Enigma fan. I have bought my first album "MCMXC ad," way back in late 1990, or early 1991, when I first heard the single, "Sadeness" on the radio and watched the video to it. I was completely mesmerized by the music. Then again, I was in my early twenties and going to college. The journey of listening to everything Cretu put out wasn't easy for me, through the years. Every time I would buy an Enigma album, I was disappointed with half the songs, that is until their fourth, "The Screen Behind the Mirror." There does come a time when I do like every song strung along these collections. I have to keep listening to them so they grow on me. That was not so with "Seven Lives Many Faces." I liked every song immediately!

I understand that there are going to be no more Enigma projects. This is unfortunate, because Cretu, I feel, was going in the right direction. It is like he found his niche. Like all other music that comes from Enigma, this album emphasizes a deep, instinctive spirituality and gives vibes of total acceptance of everyone. Like most of Cretu's other works, these songs do suggest living a lust filled life coupled with a hint of being carefree.....

If anyone wants Enigma at their most accessible, this would be it....

True musical alchemy

Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2012

Each CD is a chapter in the book that is 'Enigma'.

Michael Cretu is the true alchemist of music. He takes part of each musical genre and melds them into wonderfully unique sounds. Some of his songs are instrumental but they have no need of lyrics for they tell their own story. Others mix pop, rock and classical, such as 'Seven Lives'.

I had the first CD of 'Seven Lives, Many Faces' but when I saw the availability of the second one in this 2 CD set, I ordered it even though I would have 2 of the same CD.

From the sweet lyrics of 'The Same Parents' to the sultry sounds of 'Superficial', there is a song for everyone in this set. 'We are Nature' is fast becoming a favorite. Each time I listen, I can find yet another layer of music, a new sound or a note I hadn't heard before. This music has a way of seeping into every part of your brain, making you forget the stresses of the day.

It's electronic, dance, ambient, rock and classical. Cretu can weave the sounds of music in such a way that it seems like you're hearing it for the first time, everytime.

2 CD's come in an attractive case with an insert complete with lyrics to the songs, though not translated in English.

CD 1:
'Encounters' (starts out like all 'Enigma' CD's but always with a twist.)
'Seven Lives'
'Touchness'
'The Same Parents'
'Fata Morgana'
'Hell's Heaven'
'La Puerto del Cielo'
'Distorted Love'
'Je t'aime Till My Dying Day'
'Deja Vu'
'Between Generations'
'The Language of Sounds'
Cd 2:
'Superficial
'We are nature'
'Downtown Silence'
'Sunrise'
'The Language of Sounds(slow edit)'

Enigma grows on you

Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2008

I eagerly anticipate every new Enigma album. Artists, (like the rest of us), get bored with repetition. I believe Michael Cretu adds those etherial trumpets not only as a signature, but to reassure those looking for the same old thing, this is still Enigma.
Each release has been different enough from the previous, to spawn negative reviews that always sound the same. "This album sucks. This one doesn't have the xxx..., I loved so much on the last one." They want more of the same. Grace Slick sang "Life is change. How it differs from the rocks."
I'm not a music critic, but I thought knew what I liked. My initial response to each new release has been cool, to disappointed. Then certain songs start growing on me. Soon phrases or refrains start haunting me. Seven Lives... has done this to me, again.
Another distinct aspect of Enigma I truly appreciate is the ability to return to any of the earlier songs or albums and say "I really like this music." There are very few popular or Top 40 songs do I ever want to hear again.
Enigma & B-Tribe are the only artists I have purchased multiple copies of their CDs, for home, car & work.
My only disappointment with this release is both CDs were not filled to capacity. The more to grow on me.

Enigma is the type of relaxing music that you put on the album and listen to the whole thing. So goes getting the whole lot of them

As GREAT as Voyager

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2008

Verified Purchase

Voyager was Enigma's most underrated CD. I challenge anyone who claims to not like it to turn the lights off, turn the music up loud, and pour a glass of red wine (or your preferred equivalent :))

This is a great CD-Vocal songs are much more hard hitting that A Posteriori-it is great that Andru Donalds is back in classic form. He literally carries the 2nd song (Seven Lives). Much more MUSIC and much less space than A Posteriori-with especially hard hitting vocals on The Same Parents and Distorted Love.

Great instrumentation throughout-a return to more classical elements, but with minimal Gegorian chant, which is fine. If I want more, I listen to MCMXC A.D.

As with Voyager-if you say you don't like it-you need to turn off the lights and turn the volume up. This is easily in Enigma's top three CDs.

I am thankful that it IS different than early Enigma. Artists that don't expand seem to go away and I want Michael Cretu to be around for a while.
