Free Music Notes for Psyence Fiction
Free Music Review: Excellent ... almost perfect
Hit: 5 Stars
I have had this album for a number of years now and it continues to get better as time goes by. At first it comes off as a jumbeled mess. A mixture of music that has no business being on the same album. Then you ask yourself, "Why not?". Once you've cleared that thought process it all comes together.
The tracks are all bring something to the table (with the exception of Chaos). DJ Shadow and Jame Lavelle are genuises. They have an uncanny ability to bring out the best in artists. Unfortunately, UNKLE as we know it has never come together for a follow up album. And thats a shame because the potential of these two gentlemen working together is limitless. UNKLE has moved on to a more techno / rock sound under James Lavelle. Although good in their respect, it doesn't come near the quality of this album.
A must own.
Psyence Fiction Poster
Japanese edition of 1998 album for Mo Wax with two bonus tracks added: 'Guns Blazing' (Drums Of Death Pt.1) (Instrumental) and 'The Knock' (Drums Of Death Pt.2) (Instrumental). 14 tracks total, also including the single 'Rabbit In Your Headlights' (with Radiohead's Thom Yorke as guest vocalist) and a hidden, untitled track. Other guests include Beastie Boy Mike D, Metallica's Jason Newsted and The Verve's Richard Ashcroft. Comes in a hardbound slipcase with the front cover opening like gates that is limited to the initial pressing only.This ambitious effort shows Mo' Wax label guru James Lavelle taking on the role of director, orchestrating a grand design, and translating it musically with the talents of studio muse DJ Shadow. Most accustomed to working solo, Shadow demonstrates here his adaptable talents in collaborating with others, whether it's on the powerful "Rabbit in Your Headlights," a track recorded in 1996 in which Radiohead lead singer Thom Yorke eerily foreshadows his later success, or in "Guns Blazing (Drums of Death Pt. 1)," the album's only traditional hip-hop track, which pairs annihilating beats to Kool G Rap's equally lethal vocal delivery. Psyence Fiction, which also features contributions from Beastie Boy Mike D and the Verve's Richard Ashcroft, is certainly one of the most epic and eclectic records to emerge from the electronic world this year, one that should not only further the efforts to bridge the musical segregation that exists among the hip-hop, alternative, and electronic camps but also introduce these cultures to a few new surprises of its own. --Tamara Palmer
