Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Perry Farrell has always been an unconventional figure in music. Never one to sit still, Farrell continues to test out new avenues for his creative musical energy, and nowhere is this more clear than on Song Yet to Be Sung. His band Jane's Addiction fused punk and metal aggression with tripped-out Eastern melodies, becoming influential predecessors to future legions of modern alternative rockers. As the mastermind behind the huge left-of-the-dial Lollapalooza festival, he brought together some of the coolest names in rock, rap, metal, and punk for ground-breaking arena shows across the country. This album is Farrell's first full-length step into the electronic world he's inhabited for years as a DJ. He's fallen in love with the idea that two turntables can unite different cultures and take them to a higher place, and Song is a celebration of that spiritual elevation from the everyday. It's also a celebration of the Hebrew Jubilee, a time of renewal in which all burdensome ties are released in the name of community forgiveness. Musically, Song swirls different styles--downtempo, drum & bass, techno, dub, world, and a little rock--around a softer version of Farrell's signature wail. It's an upbeat mix that swells with optimism while generating a deep musical groove. Overall, Song shows Farrell as a musical Midas who continues to turn each new project he embarks on into gold. --Jennifer Maerz

CD Description

5.0 out of 5 stars Genius, 1 Sep 2001
For those of us who care to delve a little deeper with our music Song Yet To Be Sung is a masterpiece.

You can tell its going to be good as soon as you put it on and hear that familiar high pitched wail that always brings a smile. The instruments may have changed a little but the quality of song writing still remains as good as ever.

Perry does basically what I would love to do with music and that is takes any instruments he wants puts it together and makes it sound amazing. This is nowhere more evident than in "admit I" which has keyboards, programming, brass, strings, guitars, harmonica, bongos, bells and who knows what else blended together to make a song which makes you want to be on stage with Perry dancing and singing.

My favourite track is 'Song' and it is likely to be the one that grabs you first with its haunting guitars, excellent lyrics and powerful vocals it has an epic feel which culminates with Perry shouting "from the heights of Zion" at which point a choir joins him to emphasise the point. Amazing.

There are many other gems though and it has definate lastability because of all the little intricate bits that you pick up after several listens.

To sum up buy this album. It has everything. Fast songs, slow songs, happy songs, love songs all with Perry's imaginative, amusing lyrics. I've waited since the last Porno for Pyros album for this and so thought I was building it up too much but it was better than I'd dare dream. Listen and learn.

5.0 out of 5 stars READ THIS, 2 Aug 2001
By A Customer
This album is brilliant. Perry Farrell again displays the creativity that his career has been based upon. There is an excellent use of a variety of sounds, lending from the uplifting-trance, ska, eastern and dub genres. But that is not all - added to the above stew is the unmistakeable mad cry of that voice! This album is an eccletic, melodic mix of great, great music. Buy it...if you don't your friends will talk about you behind your back.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Future of American Music at a glance., 15 Aug 2001
By chris.bailey@bluewin.ch (Biel, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
Perry Farrells' new release is a glimse of what should happen to American music! I hope Perry is able to have an even greater impact on future musicians as he was able to do with his previous careers in The POp Culture. As an American Brit living in Swizerland I was able to witness music styles from both sides of the Atlantic, and Mr.Farrell was able to capture a sound that will cross oceans and delight the Eurodancefools and the overly emotional American peeweebobo. "Song Yet ToBE Sung" is a mature work, complex, brimming with plump dance beats, engaged to the sharp acidic vocals of our man, and a medley of acoustic summer fruits,neck the last song for that lingering finish. I Love this thang and I'm keeping it. DR. Rockstar
