Ullapeppa..! On their website, I listened to snippets of the old ones (beautiful) and I must say that your lyrics seem to fit well with the gentlemen in question.
I'm very curious... the first and the subsequent EP were really beautiful. Next week, for those who don't know, they're playing at the New Age in Roncade...
Oh my God, what great news! I'm running to buy it. The debut is legendary; I hope this isn't much worse. I was reading in the previous posts that there would also be an EP by the amplifiers after the debut album. Do you know anything more about it? What's it like? Anyway, great job Damaskinos.
"The Astronaut Dismantles HAL" is the EP that follows the eponymous one. In the digipack reissue of the debut, there’s another EP with two outtakes and the b-sides of the first two singles. BUY BUY BUY.
genius Damaskinos when he says: <<<the debut of Amplifier was explosive, everything erupted together, one song after another. The forward button didn't exist>>> how true it is! In Insider, however, Amplifier pushes even further on the experimental construction of the tracks with increasingly intricate sounds, hypnotic patterns capable of shifting frequencies and moving entire blocks of chords, pushing the limits of weaving complex melodies: the problem is that they don't always succeed well. Many drops in tone and quite a few mechanical passages. Doing better than their first album (they waited a whole 5 years before releasing it!) was a tough challenge. Personally, I remain hopeful for the future, I see them as a band with ENORMOUS potential and unpredictable margins for improvement. And if there’s one group I want to see live now more than ever, it's them. On October 26 at Transilvania.
The review seems halfway done... I don't understand the negative aspects mentioned initially but not brought up again: what are you referring to? The namesake is definitely a must-have... it's like being there at the end of the month in Milan to enjoy them live... even if it's just for the miserable 13 euros they're asking for ; )
Great. Above all, before reading the review, I had sensed the same "emptiness" between Insider and RIP... I’m still processing it, but still not bad. I give it a 4 for trust.
great reception, short and essential, the album is astonishing for my poor ears, truly beautiful. Insider, Map Of A Imaginary Place, Procedures really stand out from the whole....de gustibus eh obviously....
a decidedly spot-on review. perhaps a record that's a bit more cerebral than the first, which was more instinctive and spatial (striking, indeed). I have to say that there are still some goosebump-inducing moments on this little record, not nothing at all. Waiting for the new album with trust, listening to the new material live (the link to the archive can be found in the comments on the last.fm page of the amplifier, it seems to have been authorized by mister sel "cosmo-diver" balamir).
I discovered them recently and they are pretty good. I downloaded the latest "The octopus," which comes out in January, and it's not bad either. They seem like a lighter version of Adam Jones's band, listen for yourself:
wait wait...jones has a parallel group??? I had no idea!! name!!! about "octopus" I heard it too...what can I say: quite a heavy brick. It reminded me of the old prog albums from the 70s, it all sounds like a big jam session recorded; some tracks are spectacular, others less so, and some are incredibly dull. Maybe they went a bit overboard, or perhaps the album requires time and patience to be understood, words that seem out of time in the "virtual" era.
uhazz, if you’re referring to my (I thought I had posted it on deb, who knows!?) wow, what a memory, I didn’t even remember it myself! NOIZE but it was about those bands made up of just 3 members who sound like they have 10!
People, the self-titled debut album is essential, it's among the finest things of the past decade. <<i'm gonna turn it up loud inside your head/with the sound of many days/when we could feel the cheap drugs/squeezing through our veins>>
