Album Notes
The Third Eye Foundation: Matt Elliot.To pigeonhole the work of the Third Eye Foundation as drum 'n' bass would be an ignorant travesty: it's so much more complex. This album opens with Latin percussion that soon subsides into machine-gun trip-hop beats. Unkle-esque strings come and go and a didgeridoo-like growl (a vocal sample?) recurs in various guises. "For All The Brothers And Sisters" is a frightening construction. Sounding like an alarm call or foghorn, delivered in varying pitch, as the beats get more elaborate, it begins to resemble a wailing voodoo voice."An Even Harder Shade Of Dark" begins with funky military percussion and scratchy decks while the main theme is a reverberating minor key sequence loop. Ultimately strings enter the mix too, giving added richness and depth, reaching a point where a distant soprano and crying baby can be discerned. This dissolves into a lo-fi crackling harp melody and low strings. Another song's theme is grating shards of electronic sound-- like grinding metal--until the distant wavering choir emerges. This may seem a scary prospect, and to the uninitiated it may jar, but the dark and sinister wailings and drum-roll rhythms have an incredible lyricism and musicality.
 
Great band from a great label.

Square spot in upper right hand corner is from my price stickers and is on jewel case or plastic wrapping if sealed.
