Free Music Review: YIKES! This is MORCHEEBA???
Hit: 1 Stars
I read all the reviews, and selected this based on the most mature and unemotional reviewer i could find. Alas - I ask you to trust your instincts and believe me when I say morcheeba is not morcheeba with out Skye's voice - unless you really really really really love [bad] Disco. Go to Itunes instead. Or just buy the "big calm" or "who can you trust"- you will be much much happier with your purchase.
The Antidote Poster
After selling more than 5 million albums worldwide, Morcheeba return with a fifth album forged around the Godfrey brothers' magpie influences. This collection transcends the band's signature downbeat style with tunes that are more defined and distinct than on previous outings where the groove sometimes seemed the only concern. Fans of psychedelic arrangements, complex rhythms, and inventive songwriting will embrace it. Aphex Twin, Sonic Youth, St Etienne, My Bloody Valentine, Jimi Hendrix, and the 5th Dimension are all detectable here.Since delivering their 1993 mini-opus Big Calm, second-generation trip-hop outfit Morcheeba have taken their hybrid blues/country/hip-hop/soul sound to an increasingly wider audience. Their music has suffered as a consequence, the sass and strut of the early days gradually suffocated by tired production clichés and vapid, big-name collabs (see Charango). The Antidote has none of that. It's a stonking return to form, as the band trade in their sultry singer Skye Edwards for the feistier, grittier Daisy Martey (ex-Noonday Underground), enlist experimental musician Rob Mullinder and create a massive, orotund and ear-catching psychedelic sound by recording everything live. The songs here are by far the best they've made in a decade, with catchy hooks and thoughtful lyricism matching the bright, eager production sound. The awe-inspiring confidence and thinly disguised joie de vivre that kickstarts the album lasts most of the way through too, marking the long-awaited final stage in the band's transmogrification from introspective dance act to kick-ass stadium rock band. --Paul Sullivan
