Album Description
Based on the hit MTV animated series, Aeon Flux is one of the most anticipated films of the holiday season. The exciting and evocative score for the film was composed by Graeme Revell, a master at exploring the dark side of such film worlds as Sin City and The Crow. Set 400 years in the future, disease has wiped out the majority of Earth's population except for one walled, protected city-state, Bregna, ruled by a congress of scientists. The story centers on Aeon Flux (Charlize Theron), the top operative in the underground "Monican" rebellion, led by the Handler (Frances McDormand). When Aeon is sent on a mission to kill a government leader, she uncovers a world of secrets.Customer Reviews:

Song question.......2006-06-16
I like this soundtrack.......2006-01-27
This score also shared some similarities with Christophe Beck's score for Elektra. Both are orchestras fed through electronics. ("Beds of sound" has been used to describe both.) But Æon Flux is a better score, because there is more instruments and less percussion just for its own sake, which bored me after a while on the Elektra score.
Finally, this score really reminded me of a slightly softer version of the score for Batman Beyond, if anyone remembers that release.
On its own, I enjoy listening to this score, but I have to admit that I also liked the movie. Neither is perfect. But if you liked the movie, or are a fan of Graeme Revell's work, this may be worth a listen.

Excellence.......2006-10-23
Zyklon's music is mostly death metal, but the band also blends in the black metal roots, along with a side of industrial. It's really groundbreaking and will surprise you. Instruments are excellent here, vocal range is good, and atmospheric symphonics make this a worthy CD. If you love the extreme side of death metal, don't miss out on Zyklon, especially this CD.

Excellent disc.......2003-11-06
Anyway, this is a great CD- full of excellent vocals, extremely heavy riffs and crunchy bass - and it's better than the latest Dimmu Borgir.
Core Solution absolutely crushes.

Nothing really special.......2006-02-07
Worthy addition to any death metal collection.......2005-12-08
The majority of this album is played at breakneck speeds, with perfectly executed blasts and double bass providing the backbone. To my delight, however, the band has no problem slowing things down every once and a while to keep the songs interesting. Aeon don't fall into the trap that many brutal death metal bands fall into these days- the drums always fit the songs perfectly and accent the riffs, as good drumming should.
The guitars are heavy and creative, so that while the style of the album as a whole isn't extremely unique, the playing itself is never generic. The guitarists in this band are extremely talented, as evident through the various technical riffs and solos sprinkled throughout the cd. However, the guitarists never let their ego get in the way of writing good, brutal tunes. This brings me to the key aspect that makes this cd stand out for me...tasteful songwriting. This band shows a restraint that is rarely seen these days with the race to be the most brutal, fast, and technical DM band on the planet. The guitars and drums are always used as tools to create great songs, rather than the songs being used as vehicles to show off technical skill. Because of this, every song is actually DISTINGUISHABLE! It's such an exciting concept in modern DM.
The same restraint is not found in the vocals, which is both good and bad. It's good in the sense that these vocals are vicious, and the hatred of the lyrics can truly be sensed in every word. It's not quite as good when it comes to the question of lyrics. This band seems to be following the Deicide path of centering every single song on hatred of Christianity. This is such a tired subject in extreme metal. A song or two will suffice to show hatred of christianity, but beyond that writing every song about the same thing just seems to signify a lack of creativity.
But, lyrics are never a strong point in death metal, so it's really not a big complaint. My one other minor gripe about this album is the production: the guitar tone and kick drums are a bit flat sounding. This doesn't really make much of a noticeable effect except for during the slower sections, where a thicker tone would have helped for the overall heavy feel.
One of the stand out underground DM releases of the year!
Dare I say flawless?.......2005-10-31
Dare I say flawless? I'm hesitant to say yes only because an album of this dimension (48 minutes) needs a bit more time than usual to digest. Nevertheless, I feel confident enough to say it is one of 2005's top albums, potentially number one.
Enjoy disquietingly satanic Death Metal, played with a delightful european accent and devilishly fast time signatures? I implore you; check out this album.
Utter brutality.......2005-10-31

Worth checking out, but the Karttunen performances seem definitive.......2006-10-23
"Petals" for cello and electronics (1988) takes its musical material from Saariaho's string quartet "Nymphea" written earlier in the same year. At this point in her career, Saariaho's focus was on timbre, and the piece consists of shifting soundscapes based on changes in bow pressure, dynamic, and playing sul tasto versus sul ponticello. There is little in the way of melody here, but the sonic range explored in the piece keeps attention throughout. The Karttunen recording was released in 1998 by the Petals label of the Finnish Music Information Center, Descharmes' performance is just as entertaining.
"Oi Kuu" for bass clarinet and cello (1990) is one of Saariaho's least known pieces. It's scoring is peculiar, as both instruments have a similar range. Coming from the same era as the orchestral diptych "Du cristal ...a la fumee", the piece exhibits a similar ambience pierced by sharp tones. It's a nice piece, but the effect works better with orchestral resources. I've found no other recording of he piece and have nothing to compare Descharmes' performance with.
"Pres" for cello and electronics (1992) is a solo work in four movements based mainly on the cello part in "Amers", a sort of concerto for cello, orchestra, and electronics which the composer wrote earlier that year. The material was derived entirely from the sound of a cello string pressed until its pure tone became noise, and the possibilities of the instrument are expanded by a special microphone developed at IRCAM that can capture each of the four strings in order to amplify or electronically alter their sound separately. Electronics are also used to bring in recordings of sloshing sounds of the ocean waves. While Saariaho's interest is still on timbre, there's a strong dramatic arc here, with the solo cello arising from nothingness on an E-flat-G trill, playing an ostinato with natural harmonics, and finally being surrounded by electronics. All in all the piece is an awesome sonic experience. Descharmes matches the Karttunen performance on Ondine, which is no mean feat, and the sounds of the electronics are better mixed here.
In "Spins and Spells" for solo cello (1997) Saariaho seeks to restore a old-fashioned sound to the cello through using a Baroque scordatura. Her writing had softened somewhat around the middle of the 1990s, and here we see melodic motifs interspersed with expositions of colour and texture. It's one of the few pieces by Saariaho I don't care much for, and since I don't get it at all I can't compare Descharmes' performance here to that by Karttunen on the Petals disc.
"Mirrors" for flute and cello (1997) first appeared as a game on Naive's Saariaho CD-ROM in 1999, where one could assemble its various parts in whatever order one pleases. In each of its sections, based on rhythm, pitch, timbre, or gesture, he flute always plays symmetrically to the cello in various ways. The flute part also has the performer speaking a text among the music (a technique later widely used in Saariaho's flute concerto "L'aile du songe"), which is taken from a 14th-century French roman. It's a cute piece, but fairly lightweight. Here Descharmes is joined by flautist Jeremie Fevre, and their competition comes not from Karttunen, but from Lesley Olson and Scott Roller on Kairos. Both are fine, but I slightly prefer this performance for its faster tempos (the piece lasts twenty seconds less here than on Kairos).
"Sept papillons" for solo cello (2000) was the first piece Saariaho wrote after her opera "L'amour de loin", and makes something of a return to form after several years of writing overly melodic, ocassionally banal music. Again Saariaho explores possibilities of timbre, and the sounds produced by the cello are so otherworldly I could hardly believe that no electronics are involved. It's also emotionally moving; the second piece here is one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful things I've ever heard in Karttunen's performance on Ondine. Unfortunately, Descharmes really drops the ball here with a graceless, often reckless performance where the beauty of the piece is often still present but greatly diminished.
The performances here were recorded at IRCAM, so one can expect sound of the highest quality. The liner notes are well done, containing background on the pieces written by Descharmes, biographies of the performers, and remarks by Saariaho about why the cello is so special for her. Saariaho fans should check out the disc, the music here is good and the performances are often exciting, but do get Karttunen's first.

hypnotic hot band.......2005-09-01
Simple music,complex feelings.......2005-03-17
Aeon Spoke features guitarrist Paul Masvidal and drummer Sean Reinert from Cynic, both being two of the most talented musicians worldwide today.Paul also played in Death's "Human" and Sean played with bassist Sean Malone in Gordian Knot and Aghora.
That said,one could come to the conclusion that "Above the Buried Cry" is an extremely technical CD,with complex time signatures,double bass drumming,jazzy structures and awesome guitar solos.Wrong.
Aeon Spoke has nothing to do with anything former members of Cynic did.It's ambient,introspective,emotional music.The only thing taken to extreme here is sensibility and feeling.
Beautiful music by versatile geniuses .
Aeon Spoke sounds great.......2005-03-16
If you like Coldplay, Starsailor, Doves etc. should give them a chance. I am sure you won't regret it. You'll love it from the first chord on.
