Overview


Following "the sci-fi-themed Afternoons in Utopia and the lushly orchestrated The Breathtaking Blue",[3] it was Alphaville's first release for five years. Having "a great variety of styles",[4] this "jazzy and EDM-influenced"[3] "dark theatrical album proved too abstract to achieve any notoriety".[5] "The lack of commercial success led the band to return to its synth/dance roots with the following album, Salvation".[6]

In 2019 Marian Gold recommended Prostitute, along with the 2017 Strange Attractor, to anyone who only knew Alphaville from Big In Japan.[4]

It is the last Alphaville album with Ricky Echolette.
