Free Music Review: An Artist's Progress: A Step Further into a Real Artist
Hit: 5 Stars
It is difficult to fathom the reasons for the quite reception of Scott Walker's Climate of Hunter, which was originally released in the 1980s (if the public reception has anything to do with the quality of the cultural product). The pieces in the album are not only interestingly inventive but also unproblematically appealing to our senses with their strange beauty and melancholy. (By the way, I agree with James F. Anderson's review of this album, particularly with what he said in his 3rd and 4th paragraphs.)
In any case, I believe that this album is crucial to understand the unusual trajectory of Scott Walker's musical career from a more or less commercial artist to an autonomous artist that emerged in his later works, Tilt and Drift. This album marks Scott Walker's step further into the authentic artisthood. Anybody who is familiar with Theodore Adorno's essay, "On Popular Music," could probably guess the reasons for Scott Walker's desire and will to transform himself into a bona-fide artist in the last two decades, and its significance.
I highly recommend this album to those who are eager to learn more about Scott Walker's music career, as well as to those who appreciate non-standardized music.
