Format:Audio CD
Sublime orchestration from Montreal's #1 non-rock band. This is no moonlighting effort, but a generous, lush and supremely intelligent work conveying messages of profound beauty, isolation, longing and hope. Probably more authentic than the innumerable comparisons suggest, the Bell Orchestre are best left unlabelled for now. Cocteau Twins, Arvo Pärt, Elliot Carter, late Talk Talk...of course they're all there, but 'greater than the sum of it's parts' has never been more aptly applied than here. Don't make the same mistake I did and lose the sequence to iTunes - there is distinct method to the progression from 1-10, with 'The Gaze' marking the apex of an hour long adventure you will want to both keep secret and tell everybody about!

Sophomore Slump
5 Aug 2011
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Bell Orchestre's first effort "Recording a Tape the Colour of Light" was about 2/3 excellent, with some really innovative composing and sound contruction. The other third tended toward unlistener-friendly process music where the result took a back seat to the process.
Well, sorry to say their second CD is all of the latter and almost none of the former. There is a lot of formless mucking about, and some truly heinous racketing, and way too much stuff that sounds like Philip Glass (i.e. process music).
It ain't good when I start checking "time remaining" during the first play-through, and abort during the last track. I'll give it a few more spins this weekend to see if it grows on me, but I'm not holding out much hope.
