Download Armada Full Album Mp3 ((FULL))

Armada is the third studio album by the Norwegian black metal band Keep of Kalessin. The album was originally released under Tabu Records, however a 2 vinyl set of the album was released on Back On Black. The release features the return of drummer Vyl, and new bassist Wizziac and vocalist Thebon.

Having listened to and loved Robyn's latest album Honey and mused over other great albums that were never commercially successful, I was wondering if there were any fellow fans of Groove Armada's Black Light that might have some ideas about why this album full of back to back corkers never took off?? Black Light wasn't even a critical hit, while at least the reviewers have been kind to dear old Robyn, while she herself admitted her album probably wasn't going to break any records. Black Light got zero attention and was worthy of a Mercury.

Eclecticism is a perennial problem in dance music, indeed one coded into the notion of "dance music" itself. Would that be a genre in its own right, or a coalition of separate styles which mix at artists' own risk? The practical grapplers with this issue have tended to be DJs, but in Britain especially there's a tradition of prominent acts who've opted for a "big-tent" approach to music-making, cleaving to no particular subgenre and crafting albums which roam freely through clubland and beyond in search of anything that might catch a few ears. 808 State used to do it well, Leftfield proved there was a big market for it, and Basement Jaxx pushed it to a delirious artistic peak.

And Groove Armada? They prove the perils of the big-tent approach. Soundboy Rock is the fifth eclectic album in the duo's eclectic ten-year career, during which they've sold plenty of (highly eclectic) records and the sum total of their pop culture impact has been a car advert about waggling bottoms. And most of the people who rightly hate "I See You Baby (Shakin That Ass)" wouldn't even know it was by them.

"Song 4 Mutya" is inspired, but the rest of Soundboy Rock gives a truer picture of Groove Armada's talents and limitations. Nothing here irritates or even displeases, but almost every track is a stylistic workout missing the killer idea that would make it vital. Candi Staton turns up for a Chicago house tribute, "Love Sweet Sound", which gets the style's spacey noises right but not its sensual or spiritual desperation. On the other hand, The Rakes' Alan Donohue MCing about polar bears dying on the indie-dub "See What You Get" is a lot less awful than that summary suggests: almost everything on this album tends gently towards the middle.

The group seem happiest here when they're pastiching their own former triumphs. "From the Rooftops" and "Paris" revisit the group's chill-out roots (and the roots of Chill Out-- both tracks borrow samples from the KLF's seminal album), swaddling pretty melodies in echo to create a genuinely comfortable comfort zone. "Lightsonic" is a cousin of former hit "Superstylin'", and the combination of balearic keyboards, big beat and cornball toasting is as stupidly uplifting this time as last.

Groove Armada have touted Soundboy Rock as their best album, and they're probably right, because they've excised the smarmy or irritating elements of their earlier work. The record was inspired by the atmosphere of Lovebox, the London festival they curate and DJ at, and it certainly proves that they know what great dance music sounds like: it also suggests they lack the spark to consistently make it themselves.

Wow, I have never been that big into death metal because of the higher pitched screams but man, does The Crimson Armada put together a sweet album! You can even label this album as deathcore, which might be a better description. I have wondered how a band could come out of obscurity and sign with a huge metal label like Metal Blade, but after a few songs there is no doubt in my mind why Metal Blade signed these dudes.

Overall: This is an outstanding debut album from a band and that is well geared to be around for a long time. If technical metal is your thing, The Crimson Armada takes it to a new level. This is a must buy for any fan of death metal and would suggest any metal fan in general to give Guardians a listen to. You just might like it. I know I have gained a greater appreciation for this sub-genre.

The 21st anniversary album will feature hits such as 'Superstylin', 'I See You Baby' and 'If Everybody Looked The Same', while the duo have also written two new tracks, 'I Can Only Miss You' and 'I'll Be Searching'.

The opening epic Darkness Motive is a heavy jazz-rock (sounding a bit like brass rock) introduction before braking into a typicalprog rock with a weird mix operatic vocal of Keith Hoban and symphonic rock that resembles Crimson's first two albums. The shortSong is mostly Hoban's baritone voice accompanied by a piano. Ending the A-side is the 6-min Petworth House, where Hoban'svoice is rambling over an organ before the brass section interrupts then allowing for the choirs section (all friends of from theVictorian Opera Company Choir, where Hoban was helping out) for some delicious cascading cannon vocals. brass, mellotrons,subdued choirs succeed (at times I can't help but thinking of Floyd Atom Heart Mother) to great success until the track dies all tooearly. Opening the flipside is the short preparatory Song (based on the same canvas than its sister) to the other epic, the title track.Starting on a sinister mellotron, paced on a military march (you just sense a future Bolero), leading on a dramatic narration andhorns, choirs, trons of mellos, etc.. This tracks reeks of Crimson, from Schizoid Man to the Lizard suite, and indeed the Bolerocomes over a superb soprano and its tenor counterpoint and Steve Nash's sax.Added as a bonus track is a non-related to the group Browning classical composition (called Icarus) that was recorded in 96, andjust like the bonus track on Fantasy Of Horses, you'd never guess it wasn't part of the original oeuvre (as it simply fits quite wellits spirit), apart from the classical instrumentation-only.An incredibly ambitious album for this octet's debut and clearly the most stunning prog work to come out of Aussieland, onlytopped by their follow-up! While being somewhat cheesy (as all operas usually do), Rainbow Theatre's two albums cannot beenough recommended to anyone wanting to discover buried gems. And these two are some of the biggest opals ever unearthed.Run for this!!! social review comments | Review Permalink

While certainly no expert on Australian prog I can say that Rainbow Theatre is my favorite prog band from Australia. With two fantastic albums documenting their short career they are a band well worth the attention of many prog fans. Julian Browning was a self-taught rock guitarist from Melbourne who studied piano and music theory before becoming interested in arrangement. He played in a few bands before forming the Rainbow Theatre in 1973 and the line-up solidified over the next couple years. By 1975 the pieces came together and Browning began to put together the first album, an effort to use his influences of classical music and guitarists like Fripp and McLaughlin to do something completely different. The composers who most impressed him were Stavinsky, Wagner, Mahler, and Beethoven. A final influence was jazz fusion but the Rainbow largely checked this at the door for the first album, it is present but not commanding. While they often let rip in their live shows "The Armada" is much more in the classical music camp--a bit of jazz would creep into their second album more. Not all of their live fans were thrilled with this approach, expecting their album to rock in the same way as the shows with lots of solos. But Browning explains that the album was different and he wanted to challenge the listener by going in a unique direction. They were also one of the few bands in Australia using the mellotron along with Sebastian Hardie, though the two bands sound almost nothing alike. Browning's material came from his intense interest in the 16th century Spanish Armada, his father did the artwork referring to lyrics of sailors drowning and turning into crustaceans, with the jewelry of loved ones sinking with them. "It was pretty ambitious but somehow I made it work" he recalled. "The Armada" is a dark and often dramatic mix of symphonic (with a slight fusion slant) laden with mellotron, horns, operatic and choired vocals. It is progressive rock that is intimately linked to classical music, proudly and successfully so. Think of an album like "Days of Future Passed" with a gothic twist, combined with the brass and dark choir flavors from "Atom Heart Mother" and performed by a band with some jazz rock tendency. Browning admits that descriptions of the band often sound dreadful on paper but the approach works very well. The album is book-ended by two multi-part suites with three shorter tracks in the middle. The various sections will offer up soothing mellotron backgrounds alternated with briskly paced, jazzy rock sections--underlying rhythm sections in the band portions sound a bit like early Camel. There is a nice assembly of brass and woodwind for the classical touch: lots of sax, clarinet, flute, trumpet, cornet, French horn, and trombone. The passages flow from one to the next smoothly, augmented by Browning's occasional guitar notes and a grand theatrical feel. And my favorite ingredient, which make me curious about an RPI influence, are the dramatic and stately tenor vocals of Keith Hoban. These along with the choirs are handled with great formality and operatic passion. Rich and unsettling like dark, deep water, there is little on "The Armada" that is going to please the casual listener, those looking for the obvious hooks and sweet melodies. It is another title more fitting of a recital where the listening is willing to take in these various elements with patience. I share this reviewer's notice of the academic feel although I certainly don't mind it, in fact that's what I enjoy about this group: "The horns start out raggedly, but perhaps deliberately so. My ear hears what sounds like a student band, out of tempo and out of tune, but this may be intentional since there is no hint of amateurishness in the execution of the music which follows. That music seems to me less well-focused than the music on FANTASY OF HORSES, however. It also has some of the earnestness of a student recital, and this is underlined by the decidedly non-rock nature of the vocals, both lead and choral. There is in fact very little of any "rock"-like qualities to this music. It has instead the feeling of an ambitious, but rather academic conservatory work. But the appearance of a "Bolero" section in "The Armada" reminds us of Browning's Crimsoid influences." [Dr. Progresso] While elements of the sound are formal (particularly the vocals), the overall band sound still has room for looseness and the musicians are having plenty of fun playing together. While "The Armada" may not be quite the perfected masterpiece of its older brother "Fantasy of Horses" it is still very satisfying to the RT fan. Newbies may wish to start with the slightly more melodic and polished-production "Horses" and if enjoyed, proceed to the grittier, less polished "Armada." The Aztec reissue is another superb release with the best possible remastered sound and a great booklet/biography. Also included is a latter day bonus track (Icarus) that perfectly compliments and expands the enjoyment of this CD. Both RT reissues feature the outstanding use of bonus space, actual music that improves the experience with the original material. It must be very satisfying for Rainbow Theatre to see both of their beloved works reborn with such care for the current generation to enjoy. Both titles are wonderful examples of the free, adventurous spirit that made the 1970s progressive rock's finest hour. social review comments | Review Permalink
