Music reviews of As If to Nothing

Music Review: Profound
Rating: 5 Stars

The album is somewhat of a survey in styles/sounds, but it is mixed perfectly. I love it, perfect somber beautiful emotional music that blends electronica with interesting heartfelt lyrics performed by excellent singers and poets. This album is worth a listen for anyone wanting to branch out a bit from top 40 music into something more complex and introspective.

Description of As If to Nothing

Long awaited studio album from 2002 Golden Globe winner (best score for Moulin Rouge). Features collaborations with Bono, Evan dando, Photek, Mogwai, David McAlmont and more.
The impressive skills and epic ambition that arranger-composer Craig Armstrong brought to the Moulin Rouge soundtrack come to his aid again on As If to Nothing, making for a cohesive work that is at once beautiful and bleak. Given the dark orchestral flavor Armstrong has provided for artists like Massive Attack, U2, and Madonna, it's no surprise to find a sterling guest list (including Bono, David McAlmont, and Evan Dando) to help Armstrong articulate his world-weary musings. Photek adds vibrating beats to the rumbling "Hymn 2," the only dance-oriented track on the album. Moving back in time, Armstrong revamps King Crimson's classic ode to melancholy, "Starless," on "Starless II," adding elegant accompaniment of woozy strings and subtle piano. Dando's remorseful performance on "Wake Up in New York" is a ringer for pain merchant Mark Eitzel; Bono's lackluster performance is less revealing. But by then Armstrong has already worked his solemn, majestic procession to full effect. --Ken Micallef
