Assessment comments

relocated non-NPOV from article (it read like a review), some aspects could be reincorporated if given a source: clarkk 13:34, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

While fitting into electronica/darkwave/industrial/dance genres at a superficial level, these expressions were underpinned by a much deeper and more intricate musical foundation.
At its worst, The Lab's music was innovative and musically satisfying fringe. At its best, the complex rhythmic and harmonic interplays within the songs' well-crafted builds and breakdowns, together with Yolanda's soaring ethereal vocals and the compositional detail of the lightshow and projected video would talk directly to the soul and lift one way beyond everyday mundane reality.
Arguably it was an impossible task to capture more than a small portion of the essence of The Lab's multimedia performances within the limited medium of stereo audio-only recording.
