This almost sounds like Scooter woke up with 15 years of amnesia, forgot they weren't Celebrate the Nun anymore, and decided to start over by doing their own spin on Depeche Mode's current sound, just like they'd originally done with Depeche Mode's mid-80s sound.
I wish we'd heard more of this direction, ideally under a different name so they wouldn't have to live up (or down) to Scooter expectations. I suppose they were already doing their new trance thing Ratty, and Rick's project with his wife that never went anywhere, on top of Scooter, so there was just no room for yet another project. But it might have been really interesting.
