Living Colour
Stain

Without a doubt, one of the iconic albums of crossover and beyond, a true Masterpiece!

You somewhat blamed me for the few lines dedicated to the latest work by Davis & co., but there wasn't much to say!

Here the "clock stops", we are in '93 and the four young men of color already have two albums of great quality behind them, where their individual potential and the pronounced sense of mixing funky with thrash, or hard rock with soul or hardcore with hip hop are evident. Something was missing, perfection!

"Stain" is a varied, strong, fast, intimate, and very innovative album. It starts off with a bang with the beautiful and powerful "Go Away", truly an original track in many parts with sublime technical peaks; it continues with "Ignorance Is Bliss" and believe me, apart from the ever-aggressive and very powerful sound, that way Glover sings with soul and blues undertones drives me crazy and continues pleasantly in "Leave It Alone".

It arrives at "Bi" a fairly catchy track full of funk energy with the inevitable stopped riff at every turn; suddenly, the album takes an incredible turn, exactly like that, "Auslander" is pure innovation for the time. Besides mixing all those bits and bobs I listed before, the Living Colour also adds that industrial touch that makes this track truly unique and original!... The rest is a sonic orgy between intimate and hypnotic hard rock and beyond, I mention "Nothingness", "Hemp", "Wall".

For all music lovers in general, this album cannot be missing from your collection!
