R. Kelly - Trapped In The Closet Chapters 1-12
posted a review of R. Kelly - Trapped In The Closet Chapters 1-12. over 19 years ago
This is R. Kelly's gift to mankind - a "hip-hopera" (his words) based on what one presumes is an average day-in-the-life of a big time R&B singer. He adopts the persona of 'Sylvester' (Kelly's real-life middle name), who finds himself waking up in a... See full review
Godspeed You Black Emperor! - F♯ A♯ ∞
posted a review of Godspeed You Black Emperor! - F♯ A♯ ∞. over 20 years ago
What I find interesting about this LP version when compared to the later CD release (and indeed the rest of their material), is the almost complete lack of crescendos. It is important to note that the CD release is remixed, re-sequenced and includes... See full review
65daysofstatic - The Fall Of Math
posted a review of 65daysofstatic - The Fall Of Math. over 20 years ago
This release is exciting on so many levels. 65daysofstatic certainly aren't the first band to feature electronic and rock elements, but the way they combine the two is truly unique. Glitched up beats interact with their live drummer, synths gurgle... See full review
Sigur Rós - ( )
posted a review of Sigur Rós - ( ). over 20 years ago
This release was always a hard one for old fans of Sigur Rós. They toured this material extensively before it was recorded, and whilst that no doubt resulted in some very tight sessions in the studio, it left little to surprise those who had heard... See full review
Sigur Rós - Ágætis Byrjun
posted a review of Sigur Rós - Ágætis Byrjun. over 20 years ago
At a push, I'd say this is my favourite record in my collection. Whilst not all is to my tastes ('Starálfur' sounds a little too much like a Disney number), there are moments here of such intense beauty that it's hard not to get caught up in it all.... See full review
Sigur Rós
posted a review of Sigur Rós. over 20 years ago
I've always felt Sigur Rós are mistakenly lumped in with the rest of the 'Post Rock' scene. I believe they have far more in common with Shoegazer acts such as Slowdive ('Myrkur' from their debut is pure Slowdive) and My Bloody Valentine, and even some... See full review
World's End Girlfriend - Farewell Kingdom
posted a review of World's End Girlfriend - Farewell Kingdom. over 20 years ago
What a find this was! Picked it up after being recommended it by a member of Mono (Japanese post rock outfit) and it's quite something. There's a lot of instrumentation here, from violins to live bass and guitars, etc. As tracks progress they often... See full review
