Music Review: Heart Drenched...
Rating: 5 Stars
To even read a review of this album would put me to tears. No words could do justice to their magnificence in this album and their interpretation of their world and the people around them. It's abstract and put togther at the same time. Although, what they have done, is made this feeling global to anyone anywhere in the world. This will bring you closer to your feelings, yourself, the world, and your heart. This album, beginning with track 1, will stop your heart, flood it, and flood your thoughts.
Description of ( )
Are Iceland's Sigur R?s the saviors of 21st-century rock or true heirs to the silk-robed-and-platform-booted, pompous progressive rock of the '70s? On their third album (first for a major label), they are a little bit of both. The group continues to mix the most interesting aspects of U2 (the anthem), Low (the maximalist slow-mo thing), Radiohead (the utter lack of irony in the quest to make meaningful art for stadium crowds), and My Bloody Valentine (guitar as texture), while not sounding like anyone else on this planet. The average song length on the eight untitled tracks is eight minutes, with cascades of moaning, bowed guitars colliding with low-end keyboards while the lovely, alien-registered vocals of singer J?nsi float on top. Dynamics are employed spectacularly, but half of the album is spooky soundtrack music that never really goes anywhere. However, the actual songs on Two Sausages Kissing (or whatever you want to call it)--the third, sixth, eighth, and especially fourth tracks--are mind-blowers, spectacularly worth the price of admission. If they just stopped trying to reinvent the wheel all the time, Sigur R?s could really be a band for the ages. --Mike McGonigalGeneral CDs
