Product Description

CD Description

'The Holy Pictures' is DJ/producer David Holmes's fourth studio album. Best known for his acclaimed work on blockbustersoundtracks such as 'Ocean's Eleven' and 'Out Of Sight', this is a more personal record than its predecessor as it chronicles Holmes's life in Belfast and his relationships with loved ones. With a vast array of influences, ranging from Soft Machine to Brian Eno, it's a fine testament to his talent and includes collaborations with Leo Abrahams, Jon Hopkins and Suicide's Martin Rev.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Neu change in direction, 7 Oct 2008
A complete shift away from the break beat grooves of his best known material towards a more Neu influenced vibe reminiscent of Primal Scream's 'Evil Heat' crossed with the Jesus and Mary Chain's 'Darklands'. So if you get off on those this should also be your bag. Like the JAMC's Jim Reid, DH half whispers rather than sings but that's fine. Whether I play this as often as 'This film..' remains to be seen. There isnt as much to find on repeated listenings as there is on his first 2 albums but it's still pretty good at that.

David Holmes at his best - if you are looking for continuity with any of his last albums forget it - none of them lead onto the other, its just another stop on an amazing musical journey - Another blinder...

4.0 out of 5 stars I've heard the preview..., 13 Aug 2008
...as he played what I'm guessing was pretty much the whole album in a DJ set at The Big Chill festival this year. The material was very rock-influenced but with strong grooves that you could dance to, very much akin to his 'Bow Down To The Exit Sign' and bands like Death In Vegas and Primal Scream. It was all fairly dark, not much in the way of uplifting/funky material like '69 Police' or 'May Mate Paul', so if that's what you're after you may be disappointed.
