Music reviews of Let It Come Down
Music Review: Out of sight is always out of mind...
Rating: 4 Stars
It seems that Jason Pierce has decided that bigger is better on this album. And with few exceptions, this concept works. The use of an orchestra and gospel choir, either together or on separate tracks, along with Pierce's fragile vocals makes for a magical experience.
The music is often deceptively simple, and not as repetitive as a first listen would make you believe. For you musicians reading, for example, a song might sound in 3/4, but actually be in 6/8. A soft song with strings might morph or segue into a hard rock ballad. This schizophrenic melding of styles has become the wonder that is Spiritualized.
Although this is an excellent album in my eyes, fans of earlier Spiritualized albums (ie "Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space") might find more fault than faith in this album. But I would say that this album is a sure bet and a safe buy.
Dream on.
Description of Let It Come Down
Let It Come Down by SpiritualizedThis title is manufactured "on demand" when ordered from Amazon.com, using recordable media as authorized by the rights holder.

Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
Spiritualized frontman Jason Pierce was recently labeled "the worst boss in Britain" by a major London magazine. No wonder. He has sacked virtually every lineup of Spiritualized since 1992, seemingly with the arrival of each new album. So Let It Come Down is essentially a solo affair, but you couldn't tell by its expansive sound. Incorporating a full orchestra, gospel choir, and crack team of extremely tolerant British rock musicians, like 1997's breakthrough Ladies and Gentlemen, We Are Floating in Space this has all the markings of a classic--from the heartbreaking choruses ("Stop Your Crying") and ramshackle rock workouts ("I Didn't Mean to Hurt You") to the rhapsodic lullabies ("You Won't Get too Heaven"). It is a record as unconventional and enlightening as a pair of other records helmed by egomaniacal psychedelic geniuses: Pink Floyd's The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Love's Forever Changes. --Jaan Uhelszki
