Without a doubt, Shriekback could bring it. One could argue that Shriekback didn't have the consistency over its lifespan of its parent bands, but for at least 2 moments (this album and 'Big Night Music') it clearly outshined them both. Folks may wonder who Shriekback really was: the sweaty funk of "My Spine (Is the Bassline)", the disposable party-pop of 'Go Bang!' or the lurid alien soundscapes traversed in their more introspective moments? Perhaps I can't answer that question, but I think they will be best remembered for the latter. 'Oil and Gold' contains flashes of the funk but is full of the dark introspection. It stands as their crowning achievement. The disc kicks off with the fat bass and beats kicking in "Malaria" and "Everything That Rises Must Converge". "Fish Below the Ice" then segues into a slower, moodier section highlighted by "This Big Hush" and the poignant, sensual & brilliantly minimalist "Faded Flowers". The entire section of the album bristles with a quiet, smoldering intensity that the listener senses just has to be released otherwise self-destruction is imminent. Luckily the pressure is all released on the potent dance masterpiece "Nemesis"... a.k.a. the song that you know even if you've never heard of Shriekback. This is as ominous as a dance song can get outside of eletronic industrial. The shrieking chorus of high-pitched female vocals coming over the top of Barry Andrews' baritone makes the vibe almost an orgy of sound and fury. The underrated song here, even by fans, is the Middle Eastern tinged "Hammerheads". The melody is ensnaring to the ear and slithers to and fro like a snake charmer's tune. The album exits with the ambient, chill-out wonder of "Coelocanth", a mysterious slab of subtle shifting tones that make you feel as though you are watching this ancient rare creature navigate the currents in the ocean's deepest, darkest recesses."  [+]  Reply

"There are definitely some standout moments to be found on Lopatin's messiest and least focused album. However I cant help but feel that these great musical ideas could have been improved by a more unifying and thematically consistent whole."  Reply

Pointless animal and insect noises with ridiculous and intentionally obvious backing vox at times, added later is just dumb. When it's just the unfiltered and raw music, it's fine. It's either live or it's not. I just don't get the concept, or maybe we are supposed to think the music is worse when it's been modified? He's just the type of bloke who would do that. Mind you, my favourite of his is Rust Never Sleeps which is a hybrid live/studio thing so I'm just contradicting myself. "  [+]  Reply
