Product Description

CD Description

A peculiar release, 1999's EXILE EXTENDED reproduces 1998'sEXILE's track lineup (minus the hidden live version of 1978's "Down in the Park") in extended remix form. The remixes, while interesting, don't do much more than extend the songs;there are no radical revisions here. So for all intents andpurposes, this is the same album as EXILE, itself one of the most strange and controversial albums of Gary Numan's longcareer.
The lyrics are vehemently anti-religious, attacking sacred icons and notions with almost blasphemous glee and remarkable anger. Marshaling his most passionate--not to mention guitar-based--performances since 1978's TUBEWAY ARMY,Numan's vitriolic performances are as spiteful as his J.G. Ballard-derived lyrics. Not for the faint of heart, but one of Numan's most interesting albums.

4.0 out of 5 stars A dark and brooding masterpiece, 28 Jul 2003
By Chris Geeson (Sheffield, South Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Numan's 'Exile' album is a masterpiece of vast brooding music. It could almost be described as a concept album, for every song fits into a theme dealing with aspects of religion, divine intervention, and judgement, telling what Numan himself describes as a horror story. This 1997 album utilises the same stylistic elements as the later and better-known 'Pure' CD of 2001 - heavy guitars, industrial keyboards, and soaring angry vocals.
'Dominion Day' is a strong opener, and one of the more pacy tracks, while 'Prophecy' has an atmospheric melody and haunting vocals brimming with dark religious imagery. 'Dead Heaven' is one of the most memorable tracks from the album, sounding more like a 'Pure' track than anything else here with it's cutting guitars and mournful piano lead. 'Dark' is worth listening to just for the tolling bell accompanying the verse, but the standout track for me is 'Exile', with it's menacing lyrics and droning synth lines.
This is certainly far removed from the music Numan is famous for. Anyone expecting him still to be making songs like 'Cars' would be shocked to see how much his music has changed, but the curious will be pleasantly surprised. However, anyone who has been following the lesser known paths of his career will not be disappointed with this CD - the songs still sound like they could only ever be performed by Numan, and his vocals are still full of paranoia, with lyrics touching subjects nobody else can.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best album ever written by any artist., 12 Jan 2000
By A Customer
I have been a Gary Numan fan for as far back as I can remember I have all his albums from his Tubeway Army days to the Sacrifice album. Then came the release of Exile, and as a Numan fan I went and bought it straight away stuck it in my CD player, and I couldn't believe it, it is is probably the best album ever written by Gary or probably one of the best albums ever written by any artist, I have friends who don't listen to much of Gary's stuff but when they heard this album they loved it, if your going to buy any album today make it this one and you will understand why I gave it five stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent Numan album which depeche mode fans will love, 2 Feb 2000
By Ashley Irons "Ashley" (Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
To be honest this is the second Gary Numan album I have ever purchased. The first being his Best Of 1978-1983 album, which I bought for We Are Glass, Are Friends Electric, I Die:You Die, and We Take Mystery To Bed. Gary's latest offering is a great album in my opinion. Very haunting in parts yet other tracks are quite upbeat and reminded me of Depeche Mode (who I like very much) Top tracks IMO are Dominion Day, Prophecy, Absolution, etc... listen for the bells ringing on "Dark", it will freak you out. BUY IT! This will appeal to both fans of electronic music and rock, but is also a great album for chilling out.

Not the return to form that many say it is. Very similar drum loops & tempo throughout.. And the vocal melody of "Absolution" is repeated in at least three songs.
