Amazing Grace "Revival Times" Album Review
Igloo Magazine's REVIEW
Review by: Mark Teppo at igloomag.com
(05.10.05) A collaboration between David Sullivan (Magwheels) and Jason Crumer (Aluminum Noise), Amazing Grace folds the drift of processed guitar into the cavernous expanse of dark ambient echoes. Shards of voices still haunt these drone spaces, diaphanous ghosts floating in the reverberating space, while the elongated peal of metallic chimes rise up from unfathomable depths like time warped ritual noises from forgotten mechanical societies. Heavy waves of sound roll out from Revival Times and, like the tiny piano melodies and the whimper of terrified machinery that scuttles through these tracks, we are captives of the bleak landscape.
"Faith Healing (Symbols)" swells with broadly painted tones, echoes of sound that fill every available space before beginning their gradual decay into silence, while tiny shards of metal fall from high places to ring out against a bedrock of pitted steel. The voices of ancestral workers rise up through a heavy fog, trailing streamers of static. The final track, "---," is filled with machinery that groans like a wounded animal, moans of noise and shivering coughs of static that is the death rattle of the industrial nation. A Morse signal repeats in "Blind," a warning beacon sounding from the depths of a ruined citadel while glacial tones evolve in an elastic melody of sepulchral lamentation. An icy wind blows in a spectral string quartet and a phantom bell tree in "Blind Man's Ears." Hidden deep within the mix is a woman's voice, her words so obscured that she exists only as an instrument, as a textural element.
While Sullivan's guitar is the foundation of every track, it is these many strata of dense sounds that make this record so engaging. Revival Times is the lugubrious miasma of the Industrial Age that still haunts the edge of our dreaming lives. Recommended.

Brian Eno "Another Day on Earth" Album Review
FIVE STAR STUFF
Not as good as WARM JETS or TAKING TIGER MTN (how could it be?), but still, some mighty fine Eno-ite stuff here. A few fillers, but most of the tracks pay off on repeated listening.
