Disc two is a remastered version of the mini album containing left over material from the original Up the Downstair sessions. Performed by Steven Wilson, except: Colin Edwin – Bass guitar on "Always Never" Richard Barbieri – Electronics on "Up the Downstair" Suzanne J Barbieri – Vocals on "Up the Downstair" Gavin Harrison – Drums (2004 edition only) "Up The Downstair" is an LP that hides many surprises for the attentive listener. After a few spins you realise that even the sounds mixed into the background and he vocal interventions from old "drug" records all play a part in this warm, soothing lysergic tapestry that contains sparse, but matching lyrics. When I wrote an article on Porcupine Tree last year (published in Crohinga Well 2) I predicted that this act would become a "third way" in New British Psychedelia (the first and second being the psychedelic rock of Bevis Frond and the spacey festival sounds of Ozric Tentacles, of course). This record only confirms my statement. "Up The Downstair" is a record to get incredibly stoned to (and you will...)! Melody Maker review; They've embarked upon a mission impossible: to create a truly Nineties progressive rock soundscape, utilising modern technology but avoiding prog pomposity. And they've managed it with room to spare. It's a strange and wonderful brew, taking in Orb ambience, FSoL dub, Metallica steel and all points in between. Ambient space dubs, technological cut- ups and Gregorian chants texture the sound, but the fire at the heart of the noise comes from good old guitar. Be warned, there are solo's here, but they're played with a force and a purity that defies indulgence. Register

Слушал собственно альбом Up The Downstair. Впечатления примерно такие были...
Начало можно смело пропускать (я имею ввиду все имеющиеся в альбоме интерлюдии - если их так можно назвать и номер Synesthesia, очень банально он звучит на мой вкус). Ну а дальше - прямо россыпь интересных музыкальных моментов, которые никак нельзя пропускать любому человеку, интересующемуся прог-роком. Always Never - такой себе психоделический саундскейп с приглушенной вокальной партией. Up the Downstair - трэк, сделанный в манере трип-хопа и down tempo, и расчлененный несколькими экспрессивными гитарно-ударными партиями. Not Beautiful Anymore - снова гитарная экспрессия, будучи в офигении от которой Кавабата должен пИсаться. Small Fish - одна из жемчужин диска, этакое доосмысление работ Pink Floyd в современное время Burning Sky - кому там было мало тиканья часов в Time? Здесь оно есть, как и великолепная мелодия, космический рисунок и полет мысли. Не погрешу против истины, если стану утверждать, что вот этот трэк можно было спокойно считать нерелизом из загашников PF. Fadeaway ...нет смысла как-то изложить впечатление от нее словами. ТАКОЕ надо слушать. |
