DNA is the eighth studio album by German singer Jeanette Biedermann. Her first solo album in a decade, it was released by Columbia Records on 20 September 2019. A breakaway from much of her early discography, it marked Biedermann's first solo album to be performed in German language, having previously released the albums Wir sind Ewig (2012) and Indianerehrenwort (2015) with her band Ewig.
MusicHeadQuarter.de found thath DNA "has turned out to be a very mature album. Jeanette’s voice has gained noticeable depth compared to the pop-driven excursions of earlier decades. Songs like "Wie ein offenes Buch" feel highly authentic and autobiographical. Her vocals now carry a rockier tone and have largely moved away from the dance-pop tendencies of her early career [...] Jeanette proves she’s equally capable of capturing melancholic moods, and it’s touching how she pays tribute to her mother.[2]laut.de editor Toni Hennig found that "Biedermann's various facets are completely lost in the overall sound. Her husband, who contributed to the album as both a songwriter and guitarist, is largely responsible for this. Whether it's the brief swell of a rock-influenced guitar or minimal acoustic arrangements, the result always feels equally polished. Any rough edges [...] have been smoothed out beyond recognition. Lifeless beats, occasionally paired with a bit of tinkling piano and soulless background choirs, frequently drown out the album’s more promising musical ideas. In the end, the slick production wins out over substance."[1]
DNA debuted and peaked at number eight on the German Albums Chart.[3] It became Biedermann's highest-charting album since Break On Through (2003).[3] In Austria, it reached number 30 on the Austrian Albums Chart.[4]DNA also peaked at number 31 on the Swiss Albums Chart, also becoming her biggest-selling album in Switzerland since Break on Through.[5]
