Free Music Notes for Manifesto
Free Music Review: Good transitional album
Hit: 4 Stars
This album very nicely has one foot in the older catalog (first five studio albums), and one in the latter period (Flesh+Blood, Avalon). It also still has many of the original band members (Ferry, Manzanera, Mackay, Thompson) to continue the creative and cool sound that is destinctive of the band.
I'd even argue that this is more enjoyable than the preceeding album Siren (which sounds a bit like the band is going through the motions and is a bit uninspired). Manifesto sounds a band ready to try some new things, but not necessarily out of scope or character for the band.
The title track itself is a strange rambling piece that seems to stalk the countryside. Trash is a personal favorite; uptempo and fun, and reminiscent of the very early days of Roxy. Angel Eyes is strong funky song that kind of punches it's way along. Still Falls the Rain is in the classic Roxy Music vein. Other notable tracks are Dance Away (gorgeous song), and the quieter Spin Me Round.
Very nicely done. Good balance. Still creative and origin enough to have a slightly weird edge, but also new and modern enough to be enjoyable by the many.
