Free Music Notes for Blackfield (Dig)
Free Music Review: Musical Genius
Hit: 5 Stars
Is there a better title for a better album? I don't know. Since purchasing the original Jewel Case edition back when the CD was first released, I've been hooked on Blackfield and highly anticipate a follow-up CD. This summer, I purchased the digi-pack edition from a local music store and brought it home, only to have fallen in love with the album all over again. Blackfield's music is pure music genius, due to the mastermind himself, Steven Wilson. I've followed SW's music, since 1999 with the Porcupine Tree CD "Stupid Dream". Blackfield is made up of all the best components & aspects of every "PT" album. The melodies, arrangements & vocals are lush, smooth, rich and only SW can produce such a masterpiece. Aviv Geffen adds his own, unique style to the songs, but mainly as "Backup" because we all know SW's got the voice. I'm not big on AG's voice, only because I've seen him perform on a TV show in Tel Aviv (a video clip) He couldn't survive alone without SW's talents, although they make a splendid duo.
My favorite tracks are:
- "BLACKFILED", because of the fantastic piano intro and genius arrangements...as well as catchy, moody lyrics.
- "PAIN", because of AG's dark voice and accent & the catchy chorus line.
Packed with 13 brilliant & flowing tracks + the video for "Blackfield", the CD pumps out nothing but real music for any true music lover. As a fan of PT, No-Man and I.E.M, I couldn't pass up the purchase of this reissue. The chorus lines, dark & moody intros & subtle tones of some songs bring out every emotion, making it impossible for me to not play the entire CD. Even the bonus tracks are great too, and I like "WHERE IS MY LOVE?". AG's voice & accent stand out in the chorus when they sing the title phrase. Blackfield is definitely the soundtrack of a relaxing summer on a patio with a few beers & lots of friends & a good set of speakers. It's pure, feel good music, leaving me wanting more. I've already recorded the CD to my MiniDisc and it's on my computer as well. My friends were so pleased when they heard this music, they wanted copies of it for themselves.
Esthetically, this re-issue is 100 times better than the original and that's why I stand by my recommendation 100%. The only problem with this item is its vulnerablity to damage & wear. I suggest you put it in a protective plastic sleeve (found in many used CD shops). There's really no difference in the sound quality between the original and this one. The only thing I found strange is the 30 seconds between the original album sequence & the bonus songs. The packaging is beautiful and is much different from the Jewel case edition. Thanks, KOCH Records! These are some, if not most of the physical changes you'll notice:
- Gatefold digipack is glossy & contains different images or graphics
- Outer right flap features an image of a guy holding a bottle of Codeine with an image of a crying baby as the label
- Booklet (with lyrics) features alternative printing & graphics
- Front cover of booklet features the image of Codeine bottle with crying baby as label
- Original edition's booklet has Codeine bottle with "BLACKFIELD" printed across the label...minus the crying baby
- Inside cover of re-issue booklet features bottle of Codeine
- Inner rear cover of re-issue booklet features smaller-print credits & info
- Rear of booklet features tracklist
- Booklet fits inside front flap of package
- Color of CD is all black with grey title, compared to original brown disc with sienna lettering
- Inside right flap of package, there is a photo of SW & AV (originally found on rear of original booklet)
