Customer Reviews
Awesome! Epic!
This is the first new Spoons album in 22 years and it is wonderful! I've listened to it quite a few times now and I can honestly say that it is my favorite album. The songs are beautiful. There's some great variety here...from rocking numbers to techno, and sweet ballads. I think that you should definitely buy this album!
Wow!
What a great return album by the Spoons! This riduculously underated Canadian band really delivers a powerful, complex album after almost 23 years since their last effort, "Vertigo Tango".
All the songs on this album stand on their own. The great opener "Breaking In" could easily be found on their masterpiece "Arias and Symphonies". It has a modern twist, but is still essentially Spoons.
Other great tracks are "Imperfekt", "Star Maps" - a great rocker - and what might be the most catchy song on the album, "Escape With You". Sandy takes the lead vocal on this tune and it is too bad we do not have a few more from her on the album. Sandy's voice is so sultry - it almost sounds like she's singing right to you. A great song and should be a single in my opinion.
"You Light Up" has all the potential to be a great single and "End Of Story" is another great tune penned by Gordon Deppe that easily matches the quality of his earlier work.
The last cut, "Closing Credits" is a great closer - no pun intended:) It almost has a "Trade Winds" sort of feel from it that takes you on a little journey through lifes up's and downs in about 4 minutes. The backing vocals on this song near the end by Sandy are truly remarkable. They really embellish the whole mood of the song.
All in all, being a Spoons fan for quite some time, I'm amazed at this fantastic effort. If you are even a casual listener of this group, you need to download this album now. You will not regret it! :)
Un fabuleux album
Cela faisait des années que je n'avais entendu une oeuvre aussi forte.
Les plus vieux se rappelleront que les Spoons, groupe canadien, ont connu leur heure de gloire au début des années 1980, avec de nombreux succès, dont Nova Heart. L'album dont est tirée cette chanson, Arias and Symphonies, demeure aujourd'hui l'un de mes préférés, tous genres confondus. Un sommet du New Wave. Quand j'ai appris qu'ils effectuaient un retour après 23 d'absence, je ne m'attendais pas à grand-chose, pour être franc.
Des dizaines d'écoute plus tard, je suis encore sous le choc. Un album-concept qui, comme son titre l'indique, traite de notre difficile rapport au monde, aux autres. Cette difficulté transpire dans les thèmes, les paroles, la musique. De la pop, entendons-nous bien, mais servie avec une rare finesse et un sens mélodique imparable. Pour ce faire, le groupe revisite les styles explorés durant sa carrière, tout en s'inspirant discrètement des sonorités actuelles. Des accents schizophréniques de la techno-rock You light up, aux sombres mais immenses balades Numb et Words will smash Walls, en passant par les accents plus joyeux de End of story, Escape with you et Imperfeckt, une oeuvre mature, intelligente.
À découvrir à tout prix.
