Every parent's nightmare and every teenager's dream band, Marilyn Manson take no prisoners on their blistering and brutal Trent Reznor-produced debut. Aiming to shock and rock simultaneously, Portrait scores high marks in both arenas. Manson and his grand grimoire take Alice Cooper's tongue-in-cheek mix of glam and death rock to the nth degree with their vision of youth gone wild, personified on cuts like "Cake and Sodomy" and "Lunchbox," a schoolyard revenge fantasy gone horribly awry. One of the most original, hardest rocking albums recorded in the '90s, Portrait of an American Family is a hallmark of the industrial/metal genre, but not for those who are easily offended. --Gail WorleyCustomer Reviews:

Here's where it all began...definitely a solid album.......2006-11-30
Its punky metal with industrial fuzz all around the edges. From start to finish its a solid album, catchy, enjoyable with enough hooks to keep your average listener interested. Compared to a lot of other bands & albums that came out around that time, Portrait sets the standard. Quality songwriting, overall structure and a valid message delivered with a candy coated fist to the face.
Just the beginning of Mansons legendary career, and definitly worth purchasing.

Great.......2005-07-12
Great songs as always, great album,,,,,,highly recommended.
a little frantic.......2001-07-05
A Portrait of A Damaged Family is sort of a return to form for ML. But I still find the arrangements a bit crowded and sometimes unnecessarily hurried. There was a spareness and langour to the early records that allows the melancholy of the lyrics to sink in. In the later records Mulcahy and Mr. Ray seem to be trying to be more of a rock band with mixed success. Mulcahy's voice, too, seems strained by the pace. Exceptions to this tendency include "Gone to Bed at 21" and "K.K.M. (Korean Kissing Machine)" and the really beautiful "Homer". The latter, with its look back at a sadness-tinged childhood, would not have been out of place on the first two ML records. Other stand-outs on this CD are "Accidentally On Purpose", "Say I Had A Lovely Time" and "Please".
I recommend that people buy this record because Mark Mulcahy is a talent that should be allowed to keep making records. There is a lots of good music on this CD and it is definitely worth seeking out the earlier vinyl too, which you can still occasionally run across in used record stores in New England.
Great unknowns!.......1999-07-06

Music for Per - Per Hannevold - bassoon / David Maslanka / Oivind Westby / James Lassen
Manufacturer: Albany Records ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD ASIN: B000BRP23M Release Date: 2005-11-01 |
Tracks:
- Sonata for Bassoon
- Portrait of a Family
- Strange Interlude No. 3
Product Description
Here we have an international collection of bassoon music, recorded in Edvard Grieg's house. The highly original wind music of Maslanka is surely known to you through his many releases on Albany, and this recent work is a significant contribution to the bassoon literature. James Lassen, born in Montana, has family roots in Scandinavia. Active in jazz and classical circles, he currently lives in Bergen, Norway and is co-principal bassoonist in that city's Symphony Orchestra, alongside principal Per Hannevold. Lassen's work shows the influence of special techniques he learned while playing the Japanese shakuhatchi and bamboo flutes. Oivind Westby, a trombonist and arranger, has composed a delightful work that shows influences from British light music. Per Hannevold has been with the Bergen Symphony from 1979 and is a member of the Bergen Wind Quintet. His performances have taken him all over the world and he is recognized as a preeminent authority on bassoon technique. This is a wonderful disc for wind specialists and those looking for something out of the ordinary.Customer Reviews:
A Superb Bassoon Recital by Per Hannevold.......2005-11-26
He and the Bergen Wind Quintet recorded all three of David Maslanka's wind quintets, and when Per asked him for something he could play, Maslanka wrote the Sonata for Bassoon and Piano, dedicating it to Per, who gave its première in Bergen, and the first American performance in Austin, Texas with the pianist here, the distinguished Torleif Torgersen. In four movements, the sonata has two movements based on Bachian (but original) chorales. Maslanka explains in his booklet notes that he has made a deep study of Bach chorales as a way of finding his own melodic and harmonic voice. Maslanka is surely one of the best inventors of memorable, singing melodies writing today. His music is highly valued especially in the world of wind instrument players, largely because much of his work has featured combinations of winds. The Sonata does not disappoint. It not only has rhythmic interest throughout but it has some absolutely wonderful melodies underpinned by original-sounding harmonies (some of which may owe something to the sweet-tart harmonies of Prokofiev). For me the high point is the fourth movement, which is something like a Prokofiev toccata at a hoedown. The bassoon, playing the part of the fiddler, is ferociously virtuosic (come to think of it, so is the pianist's part) with especial emphasis on lightning-fast staccato playing. Goodness! My only criticism of the sonata itself is that at times the piano accompaniment is a bit less than striking, with rushing arpeggios and occasional chugging harmonies that could have been more 'pianistic.' (Forgive this old pianist for complaining!)
Oivind Westby is a Norwegian trombonist-composer whose 'Portrait of a Family,' for bassoon and string ensemble, is just that. In five movements -- 'The Father,' 'The Mother,' 'The Firstborn Son', 'The Dancing Daughter,' and 'The Baby Brother' -- the bassoon is the narrator, describing for us the energetic, can-do father, the melancholic but loving mother, the restless older son (whose 5/8 meter seems to be indicating, possibly, that he has trouble focusing his attention anywhere for very long), the graceful daughter dancing a slow jazz waltz, and the baby brother who clearly is into everything and practically bouncing off the walls. A very engaging set of character pieces. The Bergen Chamber Ensemble give Hannevold expert support.
James Lassen, the composer of 'Strange Interlude No. 3 for Bassoon and Piano,' is Hannevold's co-principal bassoon in Bergen. An American of Scandinavian descent, he has been in Norway since 1996. He wrote this work for the annual Hannevold/Miller Bassoon Symposium held annually in Bergen. In two movements, 'Strange Interlude' is eclectic, mixing such things as gestures gleaned from Japanese bamboo flute improvisations, rock harmonies and rhythms, and American jazz (including a startling unison bop riff for bassoon and piano). Along the way we get a modal canon and some stomping country music. And we get another breathtaking display of Hannevold's virtuosity.
All in all, this is a marvelous disc. I've rarely had it out of my CD player since I got it, except for when I transferred it to my car's CD player while I ran a number of errands -- I had to sit in the post-office parking lot because I just had to hear the conclusion of 'The Baby Brother.'
This is a disc not just for bassoonists and bassoon aficionados, but for those who appreciate tuneful contemporary chamber music. Nothing here to stretch the ears, perhaps, but plenty to feed one's need for beauty.
