Description

Product Description "She Has No Strings Apollo" finds the band firing on all cylinders. In some respects this is a darker, edgier recording than much of their previous work. A wayward, reckless spirit runs throughout the album and the music often erupts, with breathtaking results. Yet "She Has No Strings Apollo" also possesses a mournful, melancholic beauty. Like a sonic description of some desolate, windswept place evoking a sadness beyond words… .co.uk They might be few in number, but on She Has No Strings Apollo, the dirty three whip up a bleak, foreboding instrumental storm that's at least the equal of fellow travellers Godspeed You Black Emperor or Do Make Say Think. Fronted by Warren Ellis--the violinist for Nick Cave's backing band The Bad Seeds--this band of Australian avant-rock veterans twist traditional-sounding folk music into dark, desperate instrumental vignettes that reel with distortion and feedback. The territory covered in the ferocious, seven-minute "No Stranger Than That" will be immediately familiar to any fan of The Bad Seeds--so much so that you're constantly expecting Cave himself to suddenly sweep in with his coffin-deep baritone. But tracks like "She Lifted the Net" and "Long Way to Go With No Punch" roll free of conventional structure, slowly unfolding laments that show-off drummer Jim White as a very talented improviser. And it would be a crime not to mention guitarist Mick Turner, whose desiccated minor-key guitar lines provide a pale bulk to these elegantly sad songs. --Louis Pattison P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Review "Classical strings scrape out sounds of anguish against slowly knocking drums and mournful twanging guitars… Fabulous, heart-stopping stuff." -- Metro, April 2003 See more
