The 11th album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a duo with a lineup of electronics and vocals.
A handful of guests added cello, viola, piano, keyboards and female vocals.
I am always looking forward to reviewing EPs or albums from this band as it is one of my alltime favourite bands. So I started to listen to this album...#
... An album that felt a bit odd.
This is not really a proper studio album. It is re-worked for cello, viola, piano, vocals and keyboards old pieces of music. Pieces from their long career.
This album is also long and comes as a double CD.
Some of the pieces is some I recognise from previous albums. Other pieces are so re-worked that I am not able to recognise them.
All of this also has a lot of electronica and some male and female vocals.
This is really an avant-garde rock album and much more avant-garde than a normal album from this band.
Some of the stuff is good and some of it is decent. I am not won over but this album still deserve some attention.
2.5 points
