Leaving Belle & Sebastian on the eve of mainstream popularity was a brave move by onetime bass player Stuart David. As the driving force behind Looper, he's proved that he has a lot of his own ideas to offer. THE GEOMETRID takes up where his debut album UP A TREE left off. The slinky trip-hop atmosphere is still intact, but this time the production is meatier, possibly due to Looper's mutation into a permanent four-piece band.

Kicking off in energetic style with the house-influenced "Mondo 77," THE GEOMETRID is something of a celebration of technology. "Modem Song" tells the story of an email from a Japanese friend, with words set to the atonal bleeps of a modem. "Tomorrow's World" and "My Robot" deal with the gap between futuristic fantasies and real life. Elsewhere there's gentle summer pop ("These Things"), and the '60s-inspired funkiness of "Money Hair." David plays the sensitive outsider card throughout, with a mixture of charm and playfulness.

Looper: Stuart David, Karn David, Ronnie Black, Scott Twynholm.

Additional personnel: Karla Valderama, Jodi (vocals).

2nd Rel

Q (6/00, p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...An eyebrow-raising mish-mash of cheap keyboard and guitar sounds and DIY grooves....an awkward, yet occasionally beautiful listening experience."
Alternative Press (7/00, p.102) - 4 out of 5 - "...Full of wacky noises and sampled beats...we find a charmingly nanve blend of light techno sounds and bleepy analog synths bouncing along with effortlessly catchy melodies and Stuart David's breathy vocals..."
Magnet (6-7/00, p.80) - "...Featherweight pop songs wrapped in lengthy discourse....[Stuart and Karn] David can't help but write catchy tunes once in a while..."
CMJ (5/8/00, p.28) - "...A genius slab of shambolic big beat that casually wipes the floor with anything we've heard lately out of Mr. Fatboy Slim....stitching together wildly incongruous styles into an accidentally cohesive album that succeeds..."
Melody Maker (5/9/00, p.51) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...An album of surprises....you get Stuart [David's] soft weird, storybook prose....[and] the twiddlings and whirrs of clonky ancient technology...:
Mojo (Publisher) (7/00, p.118) - "...Souffle-light concoction of tape-loops, odd samples and fey vocals. At their best, the tracks...are charmingly consumptive little objects imbued with the melancholic ecstasy of summer evenings and childhood sadness..."

Geometrid
CD $17.58  SALE 5 stars Top 50 Audio Samples
Anyone familiar with the industrial-metal band's dark sense of irony should take one look at the title of Rammstein's 2009 album LIEBE IST FUR ALLE DA ("Love Is There For Everyone") and conclude that this one is a mean monster. Combining the tightness and punch of their 1998 album SEHNSUCHT with the musicianship and elaborate textures of their later work, LIEBE IST is a grand achievement, skillfully dividing its time between razor sharp metal rockers like "B********" or the opening theme song "Rammlied" and nostalgic, cabaret pieces that conjure the spirits of Weil and Brecht at a goth club. Best of the latter is the naked and haunting closer "Roter Sand" but little touches of a sinister yesteryear are everywhere, like the fake vaudeville music in "Haifisch" or the soundtrack strings of "Wiener Blut" which are eventually overcome by a guitar crunching juggernaut. This strange mix of styles is more effective here than it has been for about a decade, and there's no threat of the album becoming ponderous either as the economical tracklist and purposeful songs wipe away the sins of their previous album, 2005's ROSENROT. The group's loyal fans have remained with them through the '00s and have ...

Continuing his stroll through pop's backpages, Rod Stewart moves on from "The Great Rock Classics of Our Time" and dives into the SOULBOOK, shorthand for all the great Motown and soul songs that still are in heavy rotation on oldies radio well into the new millennium. Rod doesn't spend much time with the soul and blues singers so influential on him, choosing instead to run through a bunch of Motown hits - a full six of the 13 songs here are from the Motor City - adding a couple of smooth soul hits from the early '70s, plus Chuck Jackson & Maxine Brown's "Let It Be Me" which gives him an opportunity to duet with Jennifer Hudson. All this is firmly within Stewart's wheelhouse. Recording information: The 4 Seasons, Palm Beach, FL; Royal ...

Geometrid

In 1986, post-disco synth-dance pop was commercially waning, with even Madonna moving towards a more conventional pop sound with her single "Live to Tell," and the real hardcore stuff was reduced to an underground that had been dubbed "Hi-NRG." That is, until the Pet Shop Boys, ex-music journalist Neil Tennant and synth player Chris Lowe, made the jump from that underground to the pop charts with the gloriously sleazy "West End Girls" and "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)." Unlike most similar dance-pop records, however, ...
