Brian Eno - No One Receiving
I have no idea why exactly but Eno’s Before And After Science is continuously looked over when people take into account his art rock exercises from the 70’s. Sure, it wasn’t as revolutionary as Another Green World and Discreet Music two years previous, but what’s great about this album is that it takes the great moments of both those records and throws them together to then work past their original shapes to make something all it’s own. On top of that it created new sounds that predate the wet, rhythmic sonic embellishments he would gain major praise for on Talking Heads’ masterpiece Remain In Light (which people still foam at the mouth over). Before And After Science should be treated with the praise his other great works have garnered before and since.
i feel like i still need to "get into" this album, i've only listened to it a couple of times but there were really good more art-rock type songs like this and 'King's Lead Hat' and 'Kurt's Rejoinder' (both as excellent as this one), but then there's more "ambient" type stuff on the second side that didn't quite appeal to me as much. Hmmm. Give me a couple of months, haha.
still from “roxette”
if you love roxy music and/or are interested in fangirl culture… please check it out. the girls in the documentary are so cute i cannot believe it. if i remember correctly bracewell mentions the short film somewhere that’s how i found out about it and i once tried to order the film for a course i did at uni but unfortunately it didn’t work out… damn, now i really wanna see it again and dress up and fangirl…
