Product Description
After two years of touring and consolidating their name amongst the top few hip hop groups in Australia, The Herd release their third and strongest album to date 'The Sun Never Sets'. With terrorism and increased conservatism casting a global shadow, it's time to get reacquainted with The Herd, one of the more insightful and consistently relevant groups in Australia. The Herd weave colloquial tales of ghostly country towns and world-weary urban dwellers, celebrating raucous highs and reflecting on the more sombre moments. Darker commentary on social upheaval converge with a sincere respect for war veterans and disillusioned peacekeepers. The same group that cried, "Wake up this country needs a shake-up" is more than capable of delivering subtle, multi-layered observations. The musical platform shacks up in perfect synchronicity with the vocals; slide guitars sunbaking under heavy bass backdrops; snares cracking like burnt eucalypt branches; accordions shaken and stirred by the thump of kick drums. Gatecrashing The Herd party are colourful and unconventional samples: bellowing trumpets, percussion and cello, juxtaposed with double-timed, multi-syllabic, multi-lingual dialects. Features guest rapper is Braintax (Lowlife, UK) plus Jane Tyrrell (Blades of Hades) and Megan Drury.

5 out of 5 stars Pleasant to the neurons..........2007-03-02

For the longest time I avoided this band because for some reason I thought they were just some black metal band or some other offshoot of typical heavy music...I was completely wrong!
The sound is dark and heavy, but not prototypical metal and for the most part NOT FAST! What?! Yeah - this is not your generic headbanging metal - this is moody, atmospheric, intelligently composed metal! In fact most of the album is instrumental and the majority of the vocals are delivered at a slow pace - whether in deep growls, harsh yells, droning whispers, or softly sung melodies. The drumming is very deep and tribal sounding - moving from quiet to heavy or simple to complex as the composition unfolds. The mixture of bizarre sound effects and keyboards creates a lot of the atmosphere and such instruments as the violin add to the beautiful texture of the album. The guitar work is wonderfully executed - acoustic melodies, distorted feedback, sludgy grooves, clean rhythm and solo work - all layered into the songs with purpose and precision.
Comparisons? Remember the dark mysterious track called 'Black Sabbath' that would become the name of the legendary band? This album contains that same sort of dramatic spooky effect. Elements of Porcupine Tree and Opeth can be heard, but a comparison to them could be decieving - Neurosis have a unique and distinguished sound. The sludgy guitars remind me of the stoner-rock band Kyuss - particularly on the final track "Stones from the Sky" - and don't let the last 40 seconds of the CD fool you...it isn't your player messing up...it's just part of the sound effects...

RECOMMENDATION: If you are an open minded music lover and enjoy not just the heaviness of this album, but it's diversity also then you may enjoy a late 60's/early 70's progressive band called It's a Beautiful Day (you can read my review on their debut album). For the heavy music lovers...well...you probably already know about Opeth! ;)

5 out of 5 stars This is brilliant.......2006-03-08

I first found this album while working at a CD store, and thought I'd listen to it as a joke. What i heard blew my mind. Neurosis have managed to create an album that moves from the most despairing depths, through to the hope that lies beyond desparation. As a work of artistry, you would be hard pressed to find something that outdoes this. While it has the heaviness necessary for a true metal band, it adds a chilled aspect that enhances the grinding guitars and drums. It flows slowly through the ideas, while never losing the listener or boring them. This is, in a word, awesome. Buy this album.

NEUROSIS - A Sun That Never Sets
-
Neurosis is an aural force that is basically unmatched in the world of heavy music... They have laid the seeds for such bands as Isis, Pelican, Red Sparowes and countless others. This being their 7th album they further explore the multi-layered textures of music, pushing the bounds of sound...
The Vocals of Steve Von Till and Scott Kelly have never sounded better... Their dark, almost Tom Waits-inspired singing accompanied by thick screams and yells blends a powerful vocal force to be reckoned with. On top of them the Tribal Drumming, the Crunchy Guitars, thick low-end Bass, and the variety of other instruments such as Violin and Keys only further add to this dark textured atmosphere. Neurosis sinks you in like few other bands can... What is best about Neurosis is their music is modest and less pretentious than many other `progressive' bands. They choose to slowly build lush layers of beautiful, yet heavy soundscapes instead of all-out flashy musicianship.
Neurosis is best enjoyed when other distractions are not present, A nice walk with head-phones on... or lying on your bed with the lights out and the tunes blaring...

Neurosis is the "Napalm Death" of Post-Metal and have spawned countless other bands so if you like any of the previous mentioned bands or any of today's modern post-rock/metal be sure to check out From Where Its Roots Run.... Neurosis.

Favorite Songs: Falling Unknown, The Tide, Stones from the Sky and Watchfire.

5 out of 5 stars And the burning sun shines on. .......2005-09-06

Neurosis are easily one of the most unique and influential (just ask Isis, Pelican, The Red Sparows, etc.) metal bands out there, and this album is no exception. Continuing the evolution that started with Times Of Grace (which was a slight move away from the dark bludgeonings that characterized Through Silver In Blood) and the Sovereign EP, A Sun That Never Sets establishes the band's embrace of a more melodic "post-metal" sound.

Now, when I say "metal," throw out your normal expectations of metal, including classical/pentatonic fretboard runs, lyrics about Satan and death, and endless blastbeats. A Sun Never Sets is more concerned with texture, using a sense of sparse minimalism and repetition to achieve gradual, swelling impact. Tracks frequently stretch out to 8 minutes or more, taking their time to unfold and develop into epic soundscapes. The distorted guitars are augmented with keyboards, viola, and Jason Roeder's thundering drums as Steven Von Til and Scott Kelly's harsh vocals paint images of nomadic cultures and cracked earth under a burning sky. Repeat until soul is either nourished or destroyed (depending on your mood)..

After a brief intro, The Tide throws the listener deep into Neurosis' ravaged world, its chanted vocals, slow-building melody, and explosive climax an excellent summary of the band's sound. The closer Stones In The Sky begins with ominous tolling bells and develops into one of the most shattering conclusions of any album I've ever heard--a wall of sound raging against the final darkness. In between you have tribal interludes, bleak dirges, and bizarre, experimental sounds.

In other words, a classic. Fans of brilliant, emotive, progressive music (metal or otherwise) MUST have this one.

5 out of 5 stars Neurosis=Gods.......2004-10-31

As a rather non-creative person myself, I find it rather difficult to imagine where bands like Neurosis get their ideas. That said, we should all be thankful such original and intelligent bands exist, hard to find though they may be. While this band's titanic riffs, harsh vocalizations, and generally disaffected atmosphere all scream "metal," there's a lot more going on here. Yes, these guys do a great job of replicating the dark mood that has defined the metal genre since Black Sabbath's emergence, but Neurosis are clearly one of the few bands that can experiment freely without losing any credibility among the headbanging crowd. "A Sun That Never Sets," Neurosis's seventh album and a worthy successor to the shockingly brilliant "Times of Grace," is a perfect example of their agenda. Heavy though it may be, many aspects of this album are unmistakably progressive, from the epic song lengths to the extended lighter passages to the occasional use of strings, bagpipes, and keyboards. Now, lest anyone be scared off by the use of the term "progressive," Neurosis share little to nothing in common with the more pretentious likes of Dream Theater or Opeth (not that there's necessarily anything wrong with those bands, but Neurosis is a different beast entirely). They may push boundaries, but Neurosis are still one of the heaviest bands out there, and the aforementioned periods of relative quiet only make it more punishing when they resume their furious metallic assault. And when Neurosis bear down, they can deliver quite an assault indeed, propelled mainly by the twisted guitar work of Steve von Till and Scott Kelly and Jason Roeder's thunderous tribal drumming. "Watchfire" is perhaps the weirdest and most brilliant song in the Neurosis catalog to date, a musical and emotional roller coaster that seemlessly blends all the disparate elements that make Neurosis Neurosis. Of course, it's rather unfair to single out just one song on this album for praise, as they all demonstrate superior musicianship, songwriting, and atmosphere, but it'll have to do. Now that the Red Sox have just won the World Series, I'm convinced nothing's impossible, but I'd still be shocked if Neurosis were to release a bad album. Get everything of theirs you can find, throw it in your stereo, and prepare to be shocked. You can't stop Neurosis; you can only hope to contain them.

    5 out of 5 stars Amazing album. .......2006-08-15

    This is an awesome album. Its very unique for AGT and i love it. My favorite songs are AGT crew,Keep dancing (spoken word),stuck in a skull,the running man and etc. It has some great guitar work to it; great riffs and bass lines. This is also lyrically intelligent. This isnt some old OI OI OI stuff which I dont have a problom with...I this has great lyrics too. So if you have heard or have not heard A Global Threat...pick this up. I also reccomend by them, Until we die, What the fu*k will change and there EPs. Im not really much of a fan of Here we are but thats just me so pick it up if you want. It has more of a darker tone. But this is great and listen to the clips to sample some of it.

    5 out of 5 stars what to do if you didn't like this:.......2006-08-14

    alright. first off, this is different than their previous records. that's been said in other reviews. but i think it's the best record yet. here we are, in the red, and earache are my favorite punk albums i own. and of course until we die makes me wanna go break stuff every time i listen to it. w.t.f.w.c. is good street punk, but this...oh man. it's incredible. the bass has a metally distorted sound that is awesome and unique. and the drums alone a make it worth the money for the album. mike graves is a drumming god. the guitar riffs and solo's are 100% original and unlike anything else. bryan's voice on this album is awesome. he doesn't just scream, he growls and shouts and the lyrics are poetic, cynical, and amazingly intelligent. it's my favorite album ever, reminiscent of 80's hardcore but with an extra edge. so, if you didn't like this, get your dad's shotgun out of the closet. put the barrell in your mouth, and pull the trigger with your toe. (get in the coffin, man)

    5 out of 5 stars Different, but not bad........2006-08-11

    When i first listened to this album my first thought was "This is not the same AGT." but i realized after hearing one more song that just because it is different, doesn't mean it is bad. The album isn't as fast or energetic as previous records, but it's just new. A Global Threat knew that thier fans would either love, or hate the new material and they wrote a song about it, The First track "AGT Crew".

    I agree with the reviewer below me. Different doesn't mean bad.

    AGT Crew
    We don't need anything from you
    and we've got nothing left to prove
    AGT we see through
    we want our part in someting new
    something pure, something true
    AGT we see through
    Left bloodied, bruised and feeling used
    The beat might seem of cue but it's from the heart.

    5 out of 5 stars Here's what happened to A Global Threat..........2006-06-24

    todolosdolores; they got better. I remember being a 14-year-old brat sneaking into the Starwood to hear X. This was right after they released "Los Angeles." After the show, SO many people were talking about how X had sold out, had been watered-down, etc. For a comparison, also see the Dylan documetary Scorcese did. Same thing; as soon as he did something even slightly different/new/innovative, he got torn apart by "traditionalists." Henry Rollins said it best when he commented that punk fans are the most inflexible people on earth. AGT remains the best of its genre. New doesn't equal bad or watered down my friend. God bless 'em. If punk doesn't evolve, it dies. And that, in the words of my dead friend Darby Crash, would "blaaahbfhjty."

    3 out of 5 stars Ok, but absolutely their worst........2006-05-06

    What the hell has happened to AGT? Why, oh, why does this album sound watered down? There was once a day when I blasted "Religion is a Scam" in my car so loud it hurt. I hoped upon hope that AGT would deliver and give me yet another reason to believe that they are the best band in the scene. Sadly, I have been let down. It lacks the energy of previous albums for obvious reasons. Perhaps they will regain my trust with the next recording. I must believe so, or I would instantly break into tears. Please, AGT, please reclaim your throne in the court of street punk.

      This boxed set is by far one of the best purchases I have ever made. As a Purcell freak, this hits every button I have. The cast of characters include the inequitable Robert King, New College Choir, Bowman, and a host of other venerable persons. Likewise the attention to period performance of these works makes it an essential addition to the library of any serious anglophile/Musicologist etc. Now if only the Britten Realizations of all Purcell's songs could be recorded alongside the originals! You will Love this set!

                Album Description

                After two years of touring and consolidating their name amongst the top few hip hop groups in Australia, The Herd release their third and strongest album to date 'The Sun Never Sets'. With terrorism and increased conservatism casting a global shadow, it's time to get reacquainted with The Herd, one of the more insightful and consistently relevant groups in Australia. The Herd weave colloquial tales of ghostly country towns and world-weary urban dwellers, celebrating raucous highs and reflecting on the more sombre moments. Darker commentary on social upheaval converge with a sincere respect for war veterans and disillusioned peacekeepers. The same group that cried, "Wake up this country needs a shake-up" is more than capable of delivering subtle, multi-layered observations. The musical platform shacks up in perfect synchronicity with the vocals; slide guitars sunbaking under heavy bass backdrops; snares cracking like burnt eucalypt branches; accordions shaken and stirred by the thump of kick drums. Gatecrashing The Herd party are colourful and unconventional samples: bellowing trumpets, percussion and cello, juxtaposed with double-timed, multi-syllabic, multi-lingual dialects. Features guest rapper is Braintax (Lowlife, UK) plus Jane Tyrrell (Blades of Hades) and Megan Drury.
