Free Music Notes for Nearly God
Free Music Review: Nearly heaven
Hit: 4 Stars
The opening track is a cover of ''Tattoo'' of the band Siouxsie & The Banshees. It's really effective. All the songs are in the same toxic mood.
The collaborations with various singers like Bjork add a plus to the album.
Maxinquaye was a must : this one is a great part II.
Free Music Review: Final Grade: 97% Masterpiece
Hit: 5 Stars
Alongside Maxinquaye this is Tricky's better work. As brilliant as it is however, it is amazing low key, not at all entertaining a danceable atmosphere. Almost stripped in places, yet it all works, brilliantly too I might add. The fantastic moments felt on Poems, I be the Prophet, Make a Change, Black Coffee, and I Sing for You, are enough to make the entire album shine like gold. Brilliantly done.Free Music Review: Need i say more

Free Music Review: Very nearly perfect...
Hit: 4 Stars
Ok, Nearly God is something I bought without consciously knowing I was looking for it. I found it in a used store ... and figured I'd give it a try. Well, let me tell you, NOW I'm hooked.At first listen, you might not like it because it's not your typical techno trancy stuff. The trick is, you have to listen to it numerous times to truly appreciate the album. It is genuinely worth the effort, though. I'll tell u why.
Some of the best tracks on this record are "Poems", which will turn you on in no time flat. "Make a Change" is also very meditative. Even "Keep Your Mouth Shut", with its slight hip-hop intro will blow your ...world, friend:)
I only give it 4 stars because, while the record is truly amazing, it is hard to play it the whole way through. I'm telling you, though, purchase this album because it's really good and you will find youself repeating certain tracks over and over again. If u are looking for a dope experience without the marijuana, then go to ur nearest record store, buy the cd and play it with some fine wine and a good friend (and make amazing love):)
Free Music Review: The Blatant Truth about Tricky's Music!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a masterpiece !This cd illustrates Tricky's full trip hop ability. All the songs all have the same mood and nothing is out of place. Bjork is featured on this cd along with Martina(His X Girlfriend). The music is classic and the stand out track is a Creepy masterpiece called "Poems". Which I believe "Broken Homes" on "Angels with Dirty Faces" was crafted after. Tricky is on a slow path to destruction, His 1st three efforts were really great this includes Maxinqueye, Nearly God, Pre millennium Tension. After these three efforts the split between Tricky and his girlfriend Martina really made a difference. You can tell that her voice was a huge motivation in his music. With the abscence of her voice you can tell that the creativity just wasn't there. Tricky isn't a singer and with out a female voice over his voice,it lacks alot. His new effort "BlowBack" is completley crap, it is basically a attempt at rock music because he is bullheaded and just can't except the fact he can't sing. "Ruff Guide" which is supposidly a Greatest Hits that will give you a basic outline of Tricky's career. And if you compare the notes with each song you will see the difference in the material. "Angels with Dirty Faces" only hints at the magic that Tricky and Martina once had. "Broken Homes" is the masterpiece on that cd, and that is it. But anyway I hope this review has been extremley helpful to someone. Because Lord knows! I quit purchasing Tricky after I bought Juxtapose and got a rude awakening. Tricky his know longer on the right path, Hopefully someone can convince him to get another female vocalist and do the creepy, Haunting creative abtract beats that made him Famous!
