a true revelation... such beauty. Kate is back!!!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed. i like a few songs quite a bit! she's better than 99% of female artists outhere that are in most cases way overhyped. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
will d/l this tonight |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can't wait to hear it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
King of the Mountain is great. Haven't heard anything else. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're missing the 99% of male artists that are overhyped. she's better than them, too. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
one of my housemates is obsessed with kate bush, so i have a feeling ill be hearing alot of this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh and i must say i do enjoy the bits and chunks of her previous releases that ive heard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it's pretty great. but I'm a Kate Bush fanboi. |
||||||||
|

Listening to "Nocturn" right now. One of the best pieces here. The album is very even. Possibly a grower. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ofcourse! not that there are that many overhyped male artists anyway :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did anyone hear her cover of sexual healing? bleeeeeurrrgh! not heard the album yet, but if the single's anything to go by, i hope i wont. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
what are you saying? is being a woman and making music some kind of gimmick? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
She is fucking shite. Always has been. Too art school. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Too bad she isnt performing live anymore. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

sorry, i wanted to put 'j/k' in the end but i thought it was obvious i was joking. no, ofcourse not, i don't really care whether it's man or a woman as long as it's good music. in my initial post in this thread i was thinking of artists like tori amos & co. |
||||||||

Just giving the album a first listen now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can anyone translate the sound wave that is on the cover? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK it pains me to say this but on my first few listens it hasn't left me with anything memorable. The clincher was that when the album finnished Vespertine came on, it just happened to be the next CD in my 5CD tray thing. When it came on I compleatly forgot all of Ariel. Perhaps it is a grower, Red Shoes was and I still listen to Lilly. I will give it a chance but on the first few listens I have yet to find a 'hook'. On the whole I am a little dissapointed. |
||||||||

I don't think her style is accessible to everybody. But if you were able to unlock that door. It's the best music ever... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
-"Sunset", "Pi", and "how to be invisble" are my favs until now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im stealing it as we speak :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listening right now..sounds sweet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will hear the new record but I prefer to think of Katie as part of the era that bringed Prince, Sinéad O'Connor, and so on. The late 1980s. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"how to be invisible" is excellent!!! Reminds me of PJ Harvey a bit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"the red shoes" isn't very good. "aerial" is much, much better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Having listened to it last night it is starting to grow on me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
(although I do think that "Bertie" song is a bit of a stinker) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree, when I first put it on my wife gave me a funny look and asked if this was for real. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

there's something.. uncomfortable about it. yeah, yeah, you really love your son, you're a mother. that's lovely, but also kind of your thing. "a coral room" is really nice, the song she wrote about the death of her mother, Hannah. something like "Joanni" is classic Kate Bush to me. I really like the packaging for this set - the packaging on her last few releases has been a bit stingy, not done very well, and this looks great, really fits the music. I really enjoy seeing this album getting good reviews. I just think Kate Bush is one of the most original people in pop music, she really does her own thing. and when you read her interviews she seems like a really funny person, not at all stuffy (as you might expect). I'm especially pleased to see pitchforkmedia giving it a . :) |

It's great to hear her voice again. After first listen i have no complaints. That woman has style. Favourite track so far : that "oldschool"/[medieval?] dance, "Bertie", track 3. Cause she was able to surprise me with that change in moods after track 2. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only listened to the first 5 tracks off the first cd, but it was well recieved amongst all [including 2 kate bush fangoils] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listening to the album again. she's amazing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
After much reviewing-relistening I would have to give this album a big thumbs down. Plenty of stinkers Not one stand out track I really like Kate Bush's stuff, Hounds of Love is a classic, The Kick Inside is stunning but this one is super crappy, wishy washy dirty shirty! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
your mother is a stinker and doesn't have a stand out track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, i've been listening to both albums lately....and i think i could agree. but still, it's Kate. KATE. who can beat her ? tori amos ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
To put it in perspective. The duet she did with Peter Gabriel is better than the entire album, in fact the track Lilly from The Red Shoes is better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then I have to say I disagree with you. although I like the duet, it isn't that great, what with Peter Gabriel being in it. and please.. the track "Lily" is dross, as is most of "the red shoes". "aerial" blows "the red shoes" clean out of the water, with ease, I might add. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"then I have to say I disagree with you. although I like the duet, it isn't that great, what with Peter Gabriel being in it." My point exactly... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Good album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Probably my least favourite Bush album. Still good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's your opinion of this album 3 years later? I thought I read somewhere she was going to work on a new album not long after Aerial... never happened thought :( |
