Simon Woolf LIke tman1015, I am a little scared of this album. It is a deeply shocking and accurate musical portrayal of senile dementia -inasmuch as I've (sadly) observed members of friends and family become gradually subsumed by it. Yet it is captivating, there are many moments of beauty along the way. I cannot stop going back for another listen. I wonder if anyone (apart from the artist) has managed to listen all the way through in one sitting.

The Dancers at the End of Time is a series of science fiction novels and short stories written by Michael Moorcock, the setting of which is the End of Time, an era "where entropy is king and the universe has begun collapsing upon itself". The inhabitants of this era are immortal decadents, who create flights of fancy via the use of power rings that draw on energy devised and stored by their ancestors millions of years prior

This new LP is the first in a six-album series from ambient artist James Leyland Kirby. A winning gentleness pervades later tracks like An Autumnal Equinox and The Loves of My Entire Life, but by the end, even gentleness has taken on a desperate tinge, as though if the dancing stops, everyone dies. It’s a testament to Kirby’s cunning composition that it sounds like he’s playing long stretches of the source material intact, when in fact, he is drastically altering tiny snippets and composing them into smeared but credible pieces.

Rocking the Boat Lyrics. SHARK! Coast guard, this is the Orca, do you read me? Four and a half miles, due east of Amity Island. This is an official distress call, over. We all know the place that appears so sublime But if you dive a little deeper, you'll hit the real bottom line The head of the town is out there flashing his teeth A telltale sign about to surface that there's a monster lurking underneath.

A concept album about the lonely, romantic daydreams of a man desperate to escape the drudgery of his daily life, Eldorado weaves its songs into a dense, atmospheric tapestry that is essentially pop-prog. The theory was that America needs a new ELP," explained Bruford at the time. In the end, it's difficult to tell which passages were happy accidents and which were carefully constructed; and it's even harder to determine which are more impactful, as clattering trays, chiming bells, twittering birds, understated voices and clown-toy laughter intertwine with tinny, static-filled guitar, epileptic beats and violin lines that range from gorgeous to harrowing.
