Free Music Notes for Dummy
Free Music Review: This album will consume you.
Hit: 4 Stars
The beats on this album are awesome, it's like they came through a rip in reality from an alter-universe. The lyrics are alright, they are too unhappy for my taste, Beth's voice is wonderful though.
Dummy Poster
The collaboration of studio whiz Geoff Barrow and singer Beth Gibbons, Dummy was made at the same time as a short film noir called "To Kill a Dead Man," and the same approach--gloomy, tormented, and wildly melodramatic--permeates the album. "Sour Times" (the hit in which Gibbons cries, again and again, "Nobody loves me, it's true") and the more cryptic "Glory Box" are the linchpins of the album, defining its sound: dark flashes of old soul and film music, dehumanized electronic bleeps, Gibbons emoting like she's consumed by shame, and a bass-and-beat pulse derived from the slow bump and grind of the Bristol scene that spawned Barrow's old collaborators, Massive Attack. --Douglas WolkAlternative Rock Music CDs
