Music reviews of Echo & The Bunnymen
Music Review: The Last 'True' Echo & the Bunnymen Album
Rating: 4 Stars
Echo & the Bunnymen's self-titled album, popularly referred to as "the gray album" (due to the color of the cover), is similar to "Ocean Rain" in the sense that it has a timeless quality and sounds fresh and new, despite the passing of years. This, their fifth studio album, comes off as a far less earnest attempt than their previous releases. Ian McCulloch's vocals are more restrained, possibly more refined and artful than before.The instrumentation isn't anything epic or grandeur like "Porcupine" or "Ocean Rain", but I think this album is a bit classier and probably more accessible for newer fans' tastes. Though there are a few tracks that stand out ("Lips Like Sugar", "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo", and "The Game", for instance), this album seems to be best listened to as a whole.
This album was really the last one that truly captured the spirit of the band; after this, the band's singer, Ian McCulloch, on to do solo work and the drummer, Pete de Freitas, died in a motorcycle accident. Their next album, "Reverberation", was released in 1990 and featured an entirely different vocalist and new drummer in place of the previous Echo & the Bunnymen members. An album featuring Ian McCulloch as vocalist, "Evergreen", did not appear until 1997. Still, after several more major album releases (in 1999, 2001, and 2005) the band hasn't yet been able to, and probably won't, regain the energy and style of music that they once made in their first five studio albums, especially due to the loss of a very critical member of a band, Pete de Freitas, Echo & the Bunnymen's incredibly talented drummer.
This re-mastered edition includes seven extra tracks: "Jimmy Brown" (an early version of "Bring on the Dancing Horses"), "Hole in the Holy" (an early version of "Over You"), "Soul Kitchen" (Doors cover), an acoustic demo of "The Game", and two B-sides ("Over Your Shoulder" and an early version of "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo").
