Description:Das zweite Album von The Human League, "Travelogue", war auch das letzte in der fast ursprünglichen Besetzung mit Martyn Ware, Ian Marsh, Philip Oakey und Adrian Wright. Die gegensätzlichen musikalischen Richtungen führten nach diesem Album zu einer Spaltung der Band, was einen interessanten Kontrast zur Folge hat. "The Black Hit Of Space" verbindet die weitreichenden Sci-Fi-Besessenheiten der League mit einem einfallsreichen und sondierenden elektronischen Hintergrund, oder die Abwechslung mit dem schrillen Synth-Pop von "The Touchables" sind gro�artige Beispiele. Es gibt genug Energie, Melodie und schieres Pop-Flair auf "Travelogue", um diese Platte als einen überlegenen Vorsto� in den Bereich des geradlinigen elektronischen Pop zu qualifizieren. -
The Human League's second album, 'Travelogue', was also the last to feature the nearly original lineup of Martyn Ware, Ian Marsh, Philip Oakey, and Adrian Wright. The conflicting musical directions led to a split in the band after this album, which causes an interesting contrast throughout. "The Black Hit Of Space" fuses the League's broad sci-fi obsessions with an inventive and probing electronic backdrop, or alternating the strident synth-pop of "The Touchables" are great examples. There is enough energy, melody, and sheer pop flair on 'Travelogue' to qualify this record as a superior advance on into the field of straight-up electronic pop.

One of the best electronic albums period The hit single 'Only After Dark' is very nice. But Extra Tracks are not that good.
