The debut album from this artist from England.
Tim Bowness did the electronics, guitars and vocals here.
He got help from numerous guests who added drums, bass, guitars, woodwinds, strings, harmonium, organ, piano, mellotron, electronics and some backing vocals.
Tim Bowness is a big name in the British and world wide progressive rock scene. He cooperated with Steven Wilson in No-Man and has been working with many others before going solo on this album...
...That is, this album is regarded as his fifth album as his first four albums is in cooperation with Richard Barbieri, Samuel Smiles (two albums) and Peter Chilvers. My reviews will only cover the Tim Bowness solo albums, though. Reviews of a handful more albums to follow later this spring.
Tim Bowness got a lot of famous helpers on this album. Brian Eno, Hugh Hopper, Markus Reuter etc etc.
The music is singer/songwriter with some very sparse instrumenations backing the vocals.
The songs are pretty melancholic and dark. This is not exactly a sunny, shiny album.
The quality is pretty decent throughout without any really good songs here.
Check it out if the orher Tim Bowness albums is your thing and you are collecting his albums.
