Album Review
The Martyr Mantras is a collection of dance singles, presented in various remixes, that feature Boy George, along with several other vocalists, though the real star is the groove. This is deep house music, which is to say that the beat moves in a fast shuffle, surrounded by a prominent bass pulse. Now and then, George emerges from the tracks, notably on the near-ballad "I Specialize in Love," and on those occasions his usual virtues as a singer — an aching, vulnerable tenor voice with a good rhythmic sense and clear articulation — come to the fore. The oddest track is "Bow Down Mister," a celebration of Hinduism complete with chants of "Hare Krishna" and an ululating Indian singer. Elsewhere, the music is largely anonymous, if danceable. [In the U.K., The Martyr Mantras was credited to the group Jesus Loves You.]
Customer Reviews
all time classic
one of the best albums of all time thanks george ,dance and sing your heart out....
Such a Great record!
Well, at this time Boy George was experimenting with "House" music - and he did a pretty good job of it too. This was such a "cool" record at the time. Further on, "Martyr mantras" is a house classic with SOUL. Boys Own - Eat your Heart Out! Martyr Mantras is unique stuff.
stands the test of time
A newly detoxed George goes to India and writes an album of soulful songs to infectious tunes. There are lots of layers, loss,prayer, dancing, protest, I have over 10k songs, but this cd is aired regularly and enjoyed fresh everytime. Ta George
