GRAVE RIDE █ Quite a mellow start to the album. This like just about every █ track on the album is very keyboard/synth based. Slow plodding █ keyboards with big drums coming in every so often, and John █ actually singing! The lyrics concern a love letter from a █ condemned man to his soon to be widowed wife, and his thoughts █ on the after life (or lack of it) "lets hope its not a grave". █ █ █ 2. DOG █ Mellow melodic keyboards, strange background noises and very █ repetitive catchy (yet haunting) vocals. A definite stab at █ religion "all religions are the devils pact". █ █ 3. PSYCHOPATH █ Slow guitar/synth with very mellow vocals, and again very █ repetitive (maybe too repetitive). The lyrics are loosely based █ around serial killer John Wayne Gacy, but I think one line suits █ Lydon perfectly in his Filthy Lucre pose "psychopath dressed as █ a clown"!. He also re-uses of the "the most evil thing I can do, █ is to give my body to you" line from 'Cruel'. █ █ 4. SUN █ One of the most easily accessible tracks which is amazing █ considering the main instrument is an accordion! According █ to John the song doesn't use many musical instruments, and █ includes cardboard boxes as drums and him "honking" through █ toilet rolls! Good solid Lydon vocals and very catchy. All █ about missing the comforts of the city "I miss the car park, █ I miss the concrete, I miss the city, I miss the rain and sleet". █ Brilliant stuff! █ █ 5. ANOTHER WAY █ A simple song that's a bit too long and doesn't change much. █ Whistling keyboards with loud bass and drum loops. John's █ wailing like a banshee on this one, but he uses some very █ irritating sampled vocals and cymbals that spoil it. Self █ explanatory lyrics on this one "I gotta find another way". █ █ 6. DIS-HO █ One of my faves. Very fast dancey keyboards and drums with █ John giving it full belt! Though again its spoilt a bit by █ sampled backing vocals. The lyrics are about having a love █ affair then being "took to the cleaners", so its time to █ "heave ho!". Apparently it isn't based on him, which is just █ as well as Nora would probably have killed him for telling █ the whole world. It'd probably be a dance hit if it was █ released as a single. █ █ 7. TAKE ME █ I thought this would be the single. Definitely the easiest █ song to get into, very poppy, a bit like a track off PiL's █ '9' album. Brilliant lyrics "I've seen your world don't want █ nothing in it". Steady drums with excellent background keyboards █ and good solid Lydon vocals. █ █ 8. A NO AND A YES █ Steady plodding bass with loads of brilliant synth effects. █ Brilliant vocals too. A song about not sitting on the fence █ and having your own opinion (for which I recommend your own █ fanzine). █ █ 9. STUMP █ Probably my favourite. Fast melodic keyboards with some eastern █ style guitar and background snyth noises. Brilliant talking style █ vocals with equally brilliant lyrics about stupid ignorant people, █ "could you ever, ever see a thing right through, or take maybe an █ individual point of view", "when you couldn't put sense in a █ sentence". Excellent stuff! █ █ 10. ARMIES █ An anti-censorship song. Pumping keyboards with strange background █ noises and weird echoing vocals along with cavalry style trumpets. █ "the scissors are coming to cut out your heart, the censors are █ pointing before you can start". █ █ Remixes █ █ 11. OPEN UP - CHEMICAL BROTHERS MIX █ This is an edit of the version that originally appeared on the █ 1993 remix 12". Its totally different to the original Leftfield █ version and features the Chemicals trade mark drums and scratching, █ along with a kind of reggae style bass line but very few lyrics. █ It's ok, but not as good as the original. █ █ 12. GRAVE RIDE - MOBY MIX █ The first of the new mixes. Totally different to the original. █ A very dancey version with big drum loops and a sort of phasing █ (that's the best word I can think of!) keyboard style, but very █ few lyrics left. I reckon they could put this on in a club when █ your pissed and you'd never know who it was! █ █ 13. SUN - LEFTFIELD MIX █ The single. More of a souped up production than a remix. Not █ really that different just a few things like louder drums and extra █ synth noises. Although I would say I prefer it to the original (just). █ █ 14. PSYCHOPATH - LEFTFIELD MIX █ A more sinister version than the original. Again totally different. █ A slow moody start with dramatic keyboards that bursts in with fast █ drums and excellent background synths. I'm not sure if I prefer this █ version or not. █ █ 15. STUMP - DANNY SABER MIX █ Another totally different version, and I'm pretty sure its also a █ different vocal take too. Pulsing bass line/snyth with some distorted █ guitar, background sabre (sword) noises and a vocal track that sounds █ like its been recorded Portishead style from a scratchy piece of vinyl. █ Good, but not as good as the original. █ █ █ Well that's what I thought. To be honest it wasn't as "far out there" █ as I thought it might have been. Its nowhere near as inaccessible as █ the press made out, and if Virgin had pulled the finger out could █ have been reasonably succesfull. The album has a very mellow start █ and a very simple feel to it that will take a few listens to get into █ (but all the best stuff always does). To be honest I don't think its █ the best thing he has ever done, but its certainly not the worst. █ Some of it is brilliant but unfortunately some of it is only average. █ Definitely worth getting if you have an open mind and realise there's █ more to music than fast tinny guitars and shouting, because its █ certainly not that! █ █ I'm not over keen on the front cover but the rest of the packaging █ is quite good. The booklet contains hand written lyrics and doodles █ by John along with additional colour prints and photos of the covershot, █ which are also featured on the CD and the inside cover. ░ █ ▒ █ Enjoy this great release from BaBi of mCZ ;-) ▓ █ █▄█▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄▄ ▄ ▄ ▄ █ █ news.and.greets █▀█▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▓ █ NEWS: ▒ █ ░ █ █ We are small group of friends dedicated to bring █ the best music to you!
