Cateva cuvinte despre The Flaming Lips
Formata in 1983 in Yoklahoma iar legenda spune ca Wayne Coyne ar fi furat intrumentele muzicale dintr-o biserica. La inceput a fost un trio: Wayne shi fratele lui Mark impreuna cu Steven Drozd. Primul lor album a fost un fel de hard rock / rock progresiv ca stil iar de atunci nici un album nu a semanat intre ele. Ca orice formatzie, The Flaming Lips va trece prin multe patzanii. Tobosharul ishi va pierde o mana, fiindu-i amputata din gresheala dupa ce a fost mushcat / intzepat de un paianjen.
Cateva cuvinte despre Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
E ultimul lor album, 49 de minute. Complet psychaedelic, poate fi comparat cu un album de-al lui Vangelis mai degraba. Se pare ca Wayne e un fan SF iar acest lucru se rasfrange in versuri shi in sunet. Albumul este shi nu este comercial. E mai bine vazut de critica, are trei piese absolut superbe (#3; #9; #1) insa in mod sigur nu va place tuturor. Doar trei instrumente: chitara solo, tobe shi keyboard.
Cand merita ascultat?
O desfatare in mashina, insa nu atunci cand te zbatzi in traficul bucureshtean.
1: Fight Test
2: One More Robot / Sympathy 3000-21
3: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Part 1)
4: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Part 2)
5: In The Morning of the Magicians
6: Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell
7: Are You a Hypnotist??
8: It's Summertime
9: Do You Realize??
10: All We Have Is Now
11: Approaching Pavonis Mons By Balloon (Utopia Planitia)
1: Fight Test (8.5/10)
Prima data cand am ascultat piesa mi s-a parut mult prea similar piesei Father and Son a lui Cat Stevens. Initzial am crezut ca e vorba de replica fiului catre tata. Versurile insa m-au contrazis: e vorba despre doi tipi ce incearca sa cucereasca o fata. (I thought I was smart, I thought I was right / I thought it better not to fight / I thought there was a virtue in always being cool / So it came time to fight, I thought I’ll just step aside / And that the time would prove you wrong / And that you would be the fool). Vocea lui Wayne Coyne are inflexiunile lui Cat Stevens, insa orchestratzie e mult mai moderna.
2: One More Robot / Sympathy 3000-21 (8/10)
Stilul inovator a lui Wayne se face simtzit in aceasta piesa plina de coruri in falset, de efecte digitale ametzitoare (Unit three thousand twenty one is warning / Makes a humming sound - when its circuits / Duplicate emotions - and a sense of coldness detaches / As it tries to comfort your sadness). Spre final devine o orchestratzie electronica, de ambient.
3: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Part 1) (9.5/10)
E melodia care mi-a placut cel mai mult de pe acest album. Simpla (chiar foarte simpla), cu un acord de chitara repetitiv incat te trezeshti fredonandu-l intreaga zi. Versurile (Her name is Yoshimi - she's a black belt in karate / Working for the city - she has to discipline her body - /
Cause she knows that it's demanding to defeat these / Evil machines - I know she can beat them) parca sunt imagini dintr-un film Manga in care te ashteptzi sa vezi pushtoaice de liceu cu centura neagra in karate atacand aceshti "pink robots".
4: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Part 2) (7.5/10)
Complet intrumentala cred ca ar fi superba intr-un video game. Cu tzipate shi voci pe fundal, partea a doua descrie batalia dintre Yoshimi shi the Pink Robots.
5: In The Morning of the Magicians (8.5/10)
Cu un ritm psychadelic, a cincea piesa de pe album este lenta, dulceaga ("In the morning I'd awake and couldn't remember / What is love and what is hate? - the calculations error / Oh-oh-oh-what is love and what is hate? / And why does it matter? - is to love just a waste How would it matter?). O sunet de chitara simpla acompaniant de efecte digitale, stilul aduce putzin a Fish.
6: Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell (7.5/10)
Un pic cam asemanatoare cu piesa de dinainte, un pic cam filozofica (I was waiting on a moment / But the moment never came / All the billion other moments / Were just slipping all away / I must have been tripping / Just ego tripping)
7: Are You a Hypnotist?? (8.5/10)
Imi plac versurile de la aceasta piesa (I had forgiven you for tricking me again / But I have been tricked again - / Into forgiving you - / What is this?? Are you some kind of hypnotist??)
8: It's Summertime (8/10)
It's summertime - and I can understand if you / Still feel - sad - / It's summertime and though it's hard to see its true / possibilities -
Acelashi stil psychaedelic.
9: Do You Realize?? (9.5/10)
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face / Do You Realize - we're floating in space - / Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry / Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
O piesa superba, in topul personal de pe acest album aluneca pe pozitzia a doua doar datorita piesei Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Part 1). C
10: All We Have Is Now (8/10)
As logic stands you couldn't meet a man / Who's from the future / But logic broke as he appeared he spoke / About the Future Penultima piesa de pe album cu o lirica explicita, futurista.
11: Approaching Pavonis Mons By Balloon (Utopia Planitia) (7.5/10)
Ultima piesa, instrumentala, electronica, psychaedelica shi de ambient.
