Methods of Silence is the second studio album by German synth-pop trio Camouflage, released in June 1989 by Atlantic Records.
The single "Love Is a Shield" reached number 9 on the German singles chart, making it Camouflage's most successful song,[2] and number 20 on the US Billboard Alternative Airplay chart.
The producer, Dan Lacksman (known for his work with Telex), used both modern and old technology to create the new album.
[4] A review by AllMusic wrote that the album's "material contrasted sharply with the vibrancy of the ensuing decade" referring to the decline of the Synthpop genre at the beginning of the 1990s.
