| | June Of 44 Anahata CD (1999)
In The Fish Tank
$12.19 An indie-rock supergroup if there ever was one, June of 44 consists of members of Rodan, Lungfish, Codeine, and Hoover among others. Genre-defying prog-rock at its most intrepid and surprising, the band's third record, ANAHATA delivers a wide variety of styles. There's sometimes a total absence of standard rock & roll song structures or time signatures and, consequently, much of this is compelling stuff.
On "Boom," twangy reverb guitar, mantra-like singing, a forlorn trumpet, and a galloping tribal beat take the fore, whereas "Southeast of Boston," a slow, dreamy tune, resonates with vibraphone and soft harmonies. The vocals evoke unabashedly off-key punk/post- punk singers like Mick Jones and James White, and the reigning musical approach is fairly loose jams built around syncopated rhythms. In fact, the single thread truly connecting the songs on the album (sans the free-for-all space-out at the last track's end) is the tight, steady drumming. From reggae to jazz-funk to slightly skewed ...
| | Tortoise Millions Now Living Will Never Die CD (1996)
In The Fish Tank
$12.95 At once dimly settled and quietly driving, Tortoise's second album is afloat in contradictions. The group's "songs," all instrumental, are entirely about moods--marrying open-ended, dub-infected grooves with delays and other studio effects, pouring on vibraphone and marimbas, and electronically discombobulating the rhythms to create a sort of chill-out music birthed at the bottom of the ocean. But even their calmest modes offer a propulsiveness missing from much atmospheric music. Call it beat-wise ambient, if you must.
Yet even that simplification doesn't do justice to this album's expansive, anything-goes audio imagery. Multiple, thread-like textures interconnect in Tortoise's pieces, and dilate to become backdrops for the movie scenes of bizarre dreams--ranging from lonesome, psychedelically-charged Sergio Leone westerns to glued whirlpools of Ralph Bakshi's outer worlds, all in dimly lit Technicolor. MILLIONS NOW LIVING is among the first albums designed to soothe your nerves ...
