Originally formed in 1992 as an intended one-off project for a compilation track, Lights of Euphoria is now on its eighth full-length album. Gegen den Strom ("Against the Current" or "Against the Stream") finds the group settling for the first time into something like a permanent lineup, centered on multi-instrumentalist Torben Schmidt and singer Jimmy Machon. The pair's sound isn't quite as unique as they seem to be claiming with the album title, but it is unusual enough to be worth noting. There is a subtlety to their approach that is unusual among German electro and EBM bands, and although Machon's singing style is as harsh and guttural as you might expect, it's refreshingly free of overweening distortion effects. The beats are generally held to a standard-issue industrial 4/4, but there are moments when elements of funk and techno intrude -- such as on the stutter-step groove of "Moment of Past" and the surprisingly quiet Hecq remix of "Feel the Pain." The remixes are worth noting: five bonus club remixes by the likes of Rotersand and Glis are included on the American release of Gegen den Strom, and most are excellent. Recommended. ~ Rick Anderson

| | George Winston Autumn CD (1980) Windham Hill 20th Anniversary Edition
Gegen Den Strom CD music
$8.89 
Principally recorded on June 19-20, 1980. Includes liner notes by George Winston.
AUTUMN was superstar new age pianist George Winston's first album to sell more than 1,000,000 copies. Listening to these spare, emotionally rich pieces, it's easy to understand why. But it's also clear what sets Winston apart from the hordes of other new age piano soloists: an insistent--occasionally even jarring--gothic sensibility that informs his music.
Like many of his albums, AUTUMN found its inspiration in the seasonal changes wrought upon the Montana landscape that Winston calls home. Though it might ...

| | Sunn O White 1 CD (2003)
Gegen Den Strom album
$11.39
Doom metal isn't a huge market; you won't find an abundance of doom metallers headlining Madison Square Garden or bragging about their ability to sell more CDs than Madonna, Janet Jackson, or Pearl Jam. But it does have a small cult following, and those who are seriously into doom metal can be very passionate about it. One of the more ambitious and musical bands in the doom field is Sunn0))), whose White1 favors the sort of complexity and intricacy one expects from progressive rock. Sunn0))) has the usual doom metal elements, including dark lyrics, sludgy guitars, gloominess, and Black Sabbath-minded riffs that are incredibly slow -- no one will ever mistake Sunn0))) for a grindcore, thrash, or death metal combo. But White1 is hardly the work of your average Saint Vitus or Grief wannabes. This CD contains three extended pieces, all of which are quite involved and offer a variety of twists and turns; the overall result could almost be described as Saint Vitus by way of Pink Floyd's darker material. Sabbath minded-riffing is only part of what Sunn0))) does on White1; there are many moments when the band favors an eerie drone and becomes downright meditative (in a dark, sorrowful way). Most of the time, White1 is more reflective than heavy; in fact, some doom ...
| | Tangerine Dream White Eagle CD (1982)
Gegen Den Strom CD music

Despite the pundits who insist that anything post-ZEIT is scarcely worth a listen, Tangerine Dream's later recordings for Virgin still represent the band's watershed years. WHITE EAGLE, recorded in the waning '80s, brings back to life the startling sounds that crept up in such past achievements as PHAEDRA and FORCE MAJEURE.
The 18-minute-plus "Mojave Plan" is nothing less than fascinating. Whistles erupt from the void, eventually coalescing around a ...
