Beezher Reviewed 2005-08-22 | ||
Steel Pulse: Earth Crisis (Reissue from 1984: Elektra) Reviewed by: Beezher 08-20-2005 Fun rock-steady reggae and some dub, thick and layered sounds. For a group that for med in the mid 70’s they have proven through many albums and tours that their uplifting and energizing form of reggae and dub music has a classic sound. The vocals are stunning with smooth harmonies that blend with the layered instrumentation. Fun melodies and instrumentation light up this album, which lifts you up to mellow you out. The guitar melodies are mostly syncopated, but they break into different uplifting melodies especially in the dub versions of songs and also tks4 and 6. Speaking of dub, the synth keyboard sounds run throughout the album so, you can trip out for awhile, yay! Pretty much like the original with some added dub bonus tracks. FCC Clean. Beezher’s pics:1,4,,5,6,11…all! 1.(4:05): chill, soft horns, interesting keyboard/percussion noises, trippy 2.(4:13): mid-tempo groove, prominent keyboards, nice bridge w/harmonic vocals 3.(4:28): sexy sax, guitar strummin, fun synth noises, sweet horn solo 4.(4:59): fun steel drums/xylophone melody, cool base riffs, nice rapping at end 5.(4:57): prominent base melody, tight vocal harmonies, nice horns, vox noises 6.(4:30): nice guitar melodies, energetic layered sound, horns / vocals mesh well 7.(6:13): uplifting vocals/percussion, phat bass and keyboard interchange, nice outro 8.(5:49): spacey intro, deep bass, chill, strong social message, fun hand drums 9.(7:04): DUB version of tk1, fun percussion, echoey guitars/vocals, slooow 10.(5:25): DUB extended version of tk1 11.(5:50): remix of tk 4, nice added guitar and synth instrumentation 12.(7:38): DUB version of tk 4, sprinkly elecktro sounds, funky keyboards |
