Free Music Review: Don't believe the hype
Hit: 2 Stars
Just listened to this CD on a road trip and gotta say it's pretty dull, nothing really grabbed me about it and the idea that "Djed" is a life-changing track is laughable. Tedious, yes, life-changing, no. This isn't to say Tortoise is a bad band - their debut CD is actually pretty decent, as is TNT. But it's best to skip this one. Have never understood why it's so highly praised as one of their best ...
Millions Now Living Will Never Die Poster
Japanese edition of Chicago-based lo-fi outfit's 1996 albumwith three rare cuts from singles as unmarked bonus tracks:'Gamera', 'Goriri' and 'Restless Waters'. 'Millions NowLiving Will Never Die', a mixture of hardcore, dub and otherelements, reached #1 oTortoise's sophomore release, Millions Now Living Will Never Die shows off an unlikely blossoming of talent. The Chicago instrumental band makes clear with Millions what their eponymous debut brushed in broad strokes: this is the musical legacy of the ties between experimental art music and postpunk. The sonic environments are entirely woven from percussion, basses, and occasional keyboards--all of it thrown through the blender of electronic sampling and manipulation at various points. Hypnotic, some would say, and an attempt at mirroring Steve Reich or even Can, others would note. But Tortoise demonstrate their singular vision, one that would spawn many more all-instrumental alt-rock visions. Dub bass hints, keyboard darts and dashes, strange flashes of heartbeat rhythms--it all comes together on Millions in a manner that's hard to forget and easy to dive through. --Andrew Bartlett
