(3 Customer Reviews)
CLEANSE, the third album from Canada's Skinny Puppy, is chock full of everything that defines the band's ethos--extremely dense backing tracks, loads of samples, growling electronically-distorted vocals, creepy lyrics, and blunt, punctuating beats. The album features a fairly subtle division in the middle. The first half consists of slightly-faster-than-dirge monuments to decay, while the second half serenades decay with brutal, monolithic dance beats.
Skinny Puppy's best tracks focus on specific themes. "The Mourn" addresses medical experimentation. "Second Tooth" deals with military intervention. And the minor dance-floor hit "deep down Trauma Hounds" (the use of lower case is apparently important) is about destruction, both mental and environmental. However, Nivek Ogre's vocal's are often so damaged by electronic manipulation that one can be forgiven for not noticing the words. When the lyric sheet actually says "disembodied guttural voice noise need not make sense," perhaps it is just as well. Musically, the backing tracks are arranged with orchestral precision, combining punishing percussion, extensive use of sequencers, bursts of metallic guitar, and movie and television dialogue samples. Not something to play every day, but great when you need a good sonic head-cleaning.
Skinny Puppy: Nivek Ogre (vocals); Cevin Key (guitar, synthesizer, drums); Dr. Rudolph Goettel (synthesizer).
Additional personnel: Rave (guitar); Mowse (background vocals).

$12.69 Their time is now. All Day Sucker is the new California sound. Their music is an inspired take on the sounds of the classic rock era reinvented for modern ears. A treasure trove made up of expertly crafted pop songs layered with influences ranging from ELO, Elvis Costello to The Eagles, Elton John and that\'s just the E\'s!â€Ĺ"As musicians, we use the framework of pop music aesthetics to make pop music wonderful, be it through song structure, melody or harmonies,” All Day Sucker singer Morty Coyle states. â€Ĺ"We’ve been praying at the altar of pop music our entire lives. Now we’re ready to take our place in the church.”All Day Sucker are brimming with heady, street-smart yet refreshingly sweet, sophisticated melodic rock. What gives their instantly memorable hooks a soulful resonance are sharp musicianship and a grounded lyrical sense that illuminates mature, authentic feelings. This isn’t a group conceived in a flash-in-the pan marketing plan, or thrown together to appeal to someone’s idea of a target demographic. Core members singer Morty Coyle and keyboardist Jordan Summers started playing together in high school, fronting bands that cut its teeth in jazz, as well as pop, R&B, new wave and blues classics. While recording original material, they became an underground sensation, performing those jaw-dropping covers at Canter’s Kibitz room open jam in Hollywood. Eventually, Coyle and Summers decided to get serious with their music career and formed All Day Suckerâ€'although they almost gave that name away. â€Ĺ"During rehearsals, we realized that we didn’t have a name, then someone mentioned the Stevie Wonder song, ‘All Day Sucker,’ and we all thought it would be a great name for a band,” Summers recalls. â€Ĺ"At the same time, we were friends with Maroon 5, who were originally known as Kara’s Flowersâ€'but they didn’t like their name. We told them to use All Day Sucker, but they told us to use it. It went back and forth for a while until we settled on our respective names. ”With ...
