Free Music Notes for Walking Cloud & Deep Red Sky Flag Fluttered & Sun
Free Music Review: Just Beautiful Sound
Hit: 5 Stars
If you require your records to contain vocals, songs, repeated and catchy melodies, or verse-chorus-verse structure, then skip this. If you prefer "music" to "sound," then skip this.
On the other hand, if you can appreciate John Cage's 4'33" of silence (not actually silence because the audience and ambience provide the sound), and you enjoy the audible textures pioneered by Sonic Youth, taken to extremes by the aforementioned Godspeed, Mogwai, etc, then you will probably love this record.
The album opens up with the sounds of a beach, wind, water, and plaintive violins coming in softly like an ethereal funeral. You may be tempted to turn up the volume, but I warn you not to. Eventually simple guitar parts grow louder and more complex before a burst of distortion carries the momentum forward. Over the course of the album, you will experience silence, deafening roars, beautiful noise, simple melodies, and genuine emotion. In other words, a total sonic experience.
For fans of adventurous music only: they make Mogwai seem like a pop rock band. For fans of silence in equal part to noise. For fans of sound, not music.
Walking Cloud & Deep Red Sky Flag Fluttered & Sun Poster
Tokyo?s Mono is a peculiar group. While most bands offer up their sincerest and most genuine recordings in their infancy and spend the rest of their careers trying desperately to rediscover their youthful energy, Mono's trajectory has been quite the opposite. This flourish of hopeful creativity was captured by Steve Albini in the form of the eight pieces that make up their third album Walking Cloud And Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered And The Sun Shined. More lush and orchestral than previous recordings, the album couples an overall slow-melting ambience with a thunderous drive that reaches far greater heights than the band?s earlier work.Alternative Rock Music CDs
