Customer Reviews:

Please Ignore the Idiot reviews.......2007-07-29

First please, please, ignore the review left by a person who doesn't have the "I.Q." to understand prog. metal like Harry Tenench for example. Mr. Tenench please don't leave idiotic reviews about something you can't comprehend.....nuff said?
Ok sorry, now for the review....lol. This CD is incredible!! Ray Alder should "Leave the Past Behind" with Fate's and stick with this project fulltime. Redemption's lyrics and song composistions IMO is better than current D.T.M. albums.
If you want to hear something that can make your soul rise and soar within the melodies and riffs of some fabulous music, order this C.D. with the quickness! Peace and love to all, C.D. out !..!

This is good music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-07-26

Redemtion is a band following in the footsteps of a great band like Dream Theater.Though not as complex,they are in their own way a very tight and amazing band! While I don't have the first 2 albums yet,The Origins of Ruin is getting played alot alongside the new Dream Theater.I can't wait to see them live with DT in Houston on Aug.3.
I recomend anyony who is into prog metal to pick this cd up,it's a great album with alot of different aspects of the prog genre intertwined!Plus Ray Adler of Fates Warning is singing!I wish Fates sounded this good!

Pleasant (and intense) surprise........2007-06-29

I was very disappointed with the first two (overrated) Redemption releases, but this is stellar. Far more inspired and interesting than the relatively mundane earlier efforts. The songwriting has matured, while Alder's melodic vocals float atop intense, addictive riffs and intricate polyrhythms. The newfound complexity and polish has this in the running for a top 3 prog album of the year.

Far better than anything Redemption has done to date and superior to anything Fates Warning has released since the incomparable aPSoG.

excellent prog metal.......2007-06-01

this album is great, i bought my copy a few weeks ago and i have been enjoying it sinse. the vocalist is very good. so dont listen to the review some moron wrote. and the musicianship is outstanding. very tight and very catchy. heavy and melodic perogressive madness! and what a great drummer! also full of great memorible guitar melodies, leads, and agressive and beautiful soaring solos. so i highly recommend this album, to prog fans and even just good old metal heads that like good musicianship. fans of dream theater, symphony x, or even bands like soilwork and mercenary will enjoy this!

Again a super album from a talented band called Redemption.......2007-05-12

And with this third album Redemption will do it again.
Fans of progressive Heavy Metal eat your heart out, if you like the voice of Fates Warning, Ray Alder is singing his lungs out on this album, super Super SUPER!!!
The great song writing of Nicolas van Dyk will bring you in a marvelous journey of heavy riffs, great solo's of Agent Steel's guitar player 'Bernie Versailes', pounding bass and great drums.
But don't forget the master himself on keys and guitar, Nicolas.
So, if you will do yourself a pleasure, buy this album and stay HEAVY!!!

This deluxe double disc reissue is a superbly done follow-up to the treatment afforded Pavement's brilliant `92 debut Slanted & Enchanted. L.A.'s Desert Origins is a joy for fans, with the majority of the second disc previously unreleased demos and outtakes. Crooked Rain is enjoyable and has some of their best songs ("Range Life," "Gold Soundz," "Silence Kit") but it's a strange, transitional album by a band still a little wobbly on their prog-rock feet. With this '94 release, the stadium-ready lineup of the erudite garage group had solidified, though it was not quite solid. Erratic, eccentric producer/drummer Gary Young had been booted out of the band, whose previous recordings were primarily made by Scott Kannberg and Stephen Malkmus. With two percussionists and bassist Mark Ibold brought into the studio, Crooked Rain has a far warmer, less trebly sound to it. Among the many extras included on this expanded version are the band's two exceptional, unironic tributes to R.E.M. --Mike McGonigal

Customer Reviews:

Oh... Pavement... You make me smile.......2007-07-14

Any critic, worth their salt, knows that Pavement is one of the most underrated bands of all time. This album is the shining star that proves it. Very few bands have the ability to marry Noise Rock with Pop sensibility and get away with it (Sonic Youth manages quite well). Pavement had the uncanny ability to create a beautiful (sometimes haunting) melody, drag it through the mud, kick it in the face, and then make sweet, sweet love to it. "Stop Breathing" does just that. "Cut Your Hair" is a jovial romp through the barber shop, that could lighten the heart of even the worst of skeptics. "Unfair" is that punch you in the face, angsty punk anthem that just makes my heart skip ten beats.
"5-4=Unity" is an experiment in time signatures and overtones that us geeks just go nuts for. Not to mention all those luscious bonus tracks (37 to be exact). Some of which are kind of "meh", but when the original album is this good, it's hard to justify a score drop.
The only real downside is the last three songs, from the original album ("Heaven Is A Truck", "Hit the Plane Down", and "Filmore Jive"). Not that they're bad, they just aren't as good as anything else pavement's done (hence the lack of a fifth star).
Nonetheless, get it. Get it now. It will change your life.

"Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins...".......2007-06-13

Pavement's second album is the one whereby previously dominant duo singer-guitarist Stephen Malkmus (S.M.) and guitarist Scott Kannberg (Spiral Stairs) rounded out their sound to integrate bassist Mark Ibold and percussionist Bob Nastanovich and become 90s alt-rock's slackest band.

Whereas 1992's Slanted & Enchanted's impudent lo-fi homage to The Fall had infuriated Mark E. Smith, the band - with drummer Steve West replacing the erratic Gary Young after he had jokingly pulled a gun on Malkmus - turned their attention to an incongruous take on, primarily, California surf-rock.

Malkmus' characteristically sardonic wordplay is at its most roguish on Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain, aiming affable barbs at The Fall, the Happy Mondays, the Smashing Pumpkins and Stone Temple Pilots. Crooked Rain... is something of an amalgam of the band's previous album and E.Ps, produced in more of a classic rock fashion, yet retaining their leftfield approach to songwriting and composition, harnessing the ramshackle aesthetic of Swell Maps, Sonic Youth-esque fuzz rush, R.E.M.-tinged despondency and the artful artlessness of The Replacements.

A further plus point of Crooked Rain... is that although the album is strikingly cohesive, the band pull off the feat of never repeating themselves, the album's twelve tracks skirting the boundaries of rock n roll, pop, balladry, jazz, jive, blues, punk and country to create a sound transcendent of each style's innate tropes.

The 2004 reissue of the record, entitled Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain: L.A.'s Desert Origins is even more impressive, featuring 37 non-album tracks, some of which were altered and/or embryonic versions of songs that feature on the band's following album, 1995's Wowee Zowee.

An indie cornerstone, Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain proved beyond doubt that a band - even one as derisive as Pavement - could build a strong following outside of major label structures. Vibrant, innovative and droll Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain remains the standout in a discography full of seminal recordings.

Not A Masterpiece!.......2006-09-22

All the critics adore this album. Is like a religion I do not understand. 5 stars is the norm (Rolling Stone, Spin, and who knows who else!) Myself, sometimes I like to believe that critics know more about good music than myself. That they perceive inuendos, trends, genius more than I am able to detect. Like going to the Museum and looking at a piece of art and you say to yoursel, "what is this crap?" only to be told a moment later, by a knowledgeable and reputable so called "art critic", that what you have or are witnessing is a masterpiece for whatever the fricking reason. Stephen Malkmus gets so many accolades I thought this guy was hot! So I bought the "Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain: L.A.'s Desert Origins. Yes, I bought it in 2006 figuring a classic will sound even better years after its release. Forgive If it seems I am committing a mortal sin when I say, this CD sucks, the hype is a lot better than the actual thing. And so many songs...These guys were recording any crap that came to mind, their egos bubbling through the process and yes, there are some tasty songs that stand up against any other but, 5 stars?! Who is kidding who? 4.5 stars? That is far too generous. And don't tell me I am missing the point, that is an "in" thing and either you are part of it or you are not, because I do not buy it. Disjointed, abrasive, lacking musical direction, at times downright depressive (probably one of its appeals), monotonous, what more can I say? The critics also say that James Brown "Live at the Apollo" is hot hot hot, and it sucks. I can probably bang a two chord tune and make a better song than Mr. Stephen Malkmus and his precious band. Too many songs for very little good ones is its main flaw. Yes, I did get emotional and for that I truly ask that you listen to this so called masterpiece and tell me, what is so hot about it? Is is a state of mind, a generational critical thing? Because musically is sure no great work. Sometimes an album has only one song that makes it worthwhile buyin and I can live with that. "Crooke Rain, Crooked R...." has more than one but to listen to the other crap diminishes the joy of owning this CD. Oh, but I am not an authority so please don't shoot me if I missed the secret point but somebody is going to have to tell me what is so magnifecent about this CD. The packaging is above average, if that counts. Pavement's "Crooked Rain, Cro....." 5 stars for the few jewels to be had, for the overwhelming rest 3 stars is more than kind.

Back to the Gold Soundz.......2006-07-09

One word that has often been used to describe Pavement is genius. And now their best work of art has been re-released in a 2 cd box. CD 1 included the brilliant 'Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain'

You know when a band is considered great when other bands are compared to them. And Pavement was one of those. On their first singles and albums they were still a noisy, Sonic Youth type band but this album shows that they were now on their own. It also represents the move from pure noise to songwriting. This album is a balance between these two.

If the 90's were a reaction to the 80's, CRCR is a good example. Warm guitar sounds with emotion and lyrics fighting the fakeness of their day, to be seen in some bands (Stone Temple Pilots, Smashing Pumpkins) but also as shown by the fast and furious life in Los Angeles. Bye bye cold 80's and welcome warm 90's.

There are so many good songs that are indie classics on CRCR. 'Cut Your Hair' with the sighed chorus (and hilarous video) or P 'Range Life', with some harsh words about the Stone Temple Pilots and Smashing Pumpkins, sung over a rolling country beat.
Of the best songs ever is the love-song 'Gold Soundz'. This song is almost too amazing to describe and maybe pure genious shouldn't be talked about too much.

CRC made Pavement and Stephen Malkmus an instant hero in the (intellectual) indie scene around the world, up there with J Mascis and maybe Lou Barlow and Doug Martsch.

The rest of CD 1 is mostly songs that were not good enough to make it on any album, and you can hear. But they are still well worth listening too.

I consider this CRCR with a lot of bonus songs. A great overview of the period in which Pavement made one of the best indie albums in history.

The package itself also includes a fine booklet with some commentary on all the songs by Stephen Malkmus and also a history of the band and the album. Worthwhile.

Some of the outtakes should remain as they were.......2006-05-20

The original is a four star album. It's a bit more cheerful (Get a Haircut, Gold Soundz) than usual Pavement and a bit country (Range Life.) Oh how I love the scratchy noise of 'Slanted' and the sparse bummer ditties of 'Watery Domestic'. There's more sunshine here. Nice and lazy vocals of cryptic innuendos(?) There are too many outtakes on here for my liking. The second half of disc two is pure garbage. 'Grounded' is a phenomonal tinkly guitar jam, something Sonic Youth would be doing on something like Sister. One of the reasons I didn't give this reissue a 3 star rating.

forgettable.......2005-03-29

compare this album to roach's work with percussionist metcalfe on "serpent's lair" and you'll see the vital importance of persussion in tribal/trance. the tribal melodies on their own can't take it to the higher meditative level, and without the focus and energy provided by percussion the whole thing degenerates into nothing special. where the "serpent's lair" was brilliant and finds a permanent space in the CD changer, "origins" will get the obligatory 2 plays before it's retired to the CD stack.

Transcendental Magic, A Soul Grabber.......2005-01-23

"Origins" is another one of those rare, absolutely treasureable albums that you do not dare sell or remove from your CD collection. Released in 1993, it is nothing short of pure musical genius at work--gloriously free of corporate pressures or boundaries: purely harmonious with genuine Aboriginal overtones, deliberate in its intent, flowing, rhythmic, uninhibited by CEO say-so's. Steve, I want to party with you, brother.

Get ready to experience total mental freedom. Track 1, "Artifacts" (the name of an album produced by Roach a year earlier), a hefty twelve minutes long, begins with the haunting sound of the Bull Roarer, the traditional communication device made of mulga wood used by the Aborigines. Gradually, the perfectly harmonious sounds of the syncopated drum beats find their way into the subconscious, taking with it the stress after a hard day, pleasantly filled in the background with the comforting sounds of the didgeridoo, the ubiquitous long, wind instrument also played in traditional aboriginal music. "Connect Underground" on Track 2 is blended seamlessly, floating into an awesome flashback to Roach's 1988 Grand Masterpiece, "Dreamtime Return," filled with synthesized waveforms and assorted percussion instruments all the way to Track 5, "Face in The Fire," where we can hear Roach's tempting whispers in the backdrop and aboriginal yawps snapping us into a surreal, neolithic trek. I dare not call it new age. In fact, I won't spoil the rest for you. You can genuinely believe all positive reviews about this work, for only genius minds think alike and could themselves appreciate the work of a genius.

This album is unquestionably one of the best recordings to listen to while reading, writing and meditating, and is sure to enhance passionate indulgances between lovers, taking the experience to a new, never before visited level of bliss.

It is truly a pleasure to live in an age when we have such pure talent living with us now, as if we were parallel to the fortunate society who were blessed with the then fully unrecognized mastery of W.A. Mozart while he was still living. Except for Roach's darker, creepier "Well of Souls" (1998), "Origins," like "Artifacts" and "Quiet Music" (1988) are truly worth possessing, worth a thousand pairs of shoes and more. Not in material value, mind you, but in it's mystical abilities as a priceless therapeutic tool to relieve stress, anxiety and anger in a modern world. Can't say enough good things about it. Once you experience this album for yourself, always best journeyed with a good pair of headphones with cobalt drivers capable of reaching the full range of Roach's musical expressions, then others will wonder what your secret was to a pleasantly refreshed personality. No dramatics here. I only have the ability to call it as I see it. Don't wait. Beg, borrow, take a payday loan. Step 1: Place CD in tray. 2: Plug in headphones. 3: Set equalizer to maximum range. 4: Press REPEAT ON, then PLAY. 5: Enjoy--enjoy being thrust back into a time when the earth was pure, wonderfully absent of any petty cares or troubles that we may have in this world. Absolutely amazing! You can take a fascinating, unique and thoroughly invigorating journey into the subconscious and through time for a ridiculously small fare. Careful. You may not want to come back.

Face in the Fire.......2004-10-21

This one track alone keeps me coming back to this CD. It starts out mysteriously, builds to a thrilling climax, and tapers off eerily. Roach simply could not have done it any better. Whenever I hear it, I remember so many things from the past, and see so many things in the future.

A Masterpiece..........2001-12-20

ORIGINS may be the pinnacle of an ascent into the mystic and primordial places Roach began to visit on DREAMTIME RETURN and WORLD'S EDGE, and with the Suspended Memories project. The circulating didjeridu patterns that fully imbibe this record are not only its tonal center, but the electro-acoustic nature that is the heart of its sound, and Roach meticulously and passionately utilizes its earthy ferocity and multi-timbral frequencies to its fullest. "Clay, Wood, Bone, Dirt" uses the didjeridu's hoary sonic pyrotechnics and a tumbling avalanche of hand-struck percussion to illustrate a tribalistic canvas. This is a recording that immerses the participant in daunting, expansive landscapes and deeply entrenched cultures permeated throughout by a darker, ominous resonance, as mortified by the unsettling melodrama and formidable rhythms of "The Face in the Fire." Never before has Roach's electronic surface felt so earthen and weathered; all of the assertive ambience and environmental dissonance he's pressurized up to now reach critical mass in ORIGINS' molten core.

Structure..........1999-08-18

If you like techno-tribal a la Steve Roach (w/ Jorge Reyes), this is the one to get. I've returned to this CD many a time. I don't know why. Maybe it's the structure. Or the sheer "tribal essence" of it that my subconscious recognizes (and seeks). Ambient is OK to a point. But eventually it all starts to sound the same... Know what I mean? That's why I like "Origins". It evokes the primal like nothing else. Take the trip... You'll understand.........Tracks to emphasize in particular are Artifacts, Eyes of the Spirit, and Dreaming Now, Then. Also recommended is Suspended Memories, Forgotten Gods (again w/ Jorge and Suso). Same kind of trip. Enjoy.

Essential hardcore.......2000-11-18

This is the album to take with you to the proverbial desert island. Nothing gets your adrenaline flowing like these 20 minutes - it's ridiculously short, but that doesn't matter - of speedy noise and agression. If you like to play the air guitar and bang your head when the wife and kids are away (and preferrably the neighbours too): this is it! It's a pity Prong slowed down on their later albums, because this is what they're really good at.

Rooted: Origins of Now The Miyumi Project Big Band Composed and conducted by Tatsu Aoki

The Jazz Institute of Chicago Sound Archive and Recordings (CD Label Premiere) / Southport Records / Asian Improv Records (S-SSD-0092)

Southport Records in association with Asian Improv and The Jazz Institute Of Chicago presents the debut of the JIC's new CD label, “Sound Archive And Recordings.” Last summer of 2001 the JIC commissioned famed bassist/composer and producer Tatsu Aoki to compose and perform the selection “Rooted.” The world premiere of the 12-piece ensemble big band percussion project was within a regional city neighborhood (Ping Tom Memorial Park in Chinatown) and at The Chicago Jazz Festival in the summer of 2001. This recording is the first in an ongoing JIC series of producing original music and also pulling sides from their lush history of festivals and events that go back in time to 1978.

“Rooted” traces the immigration of people from the Asian Pacific region to Chicago and other North American ports of call. In addition to melding elements of traditional Japanese music and avant-garde jazz, it finds rhythmic common ground in seemingly disparate styles. Included in the ensemble are AACM leader Mwata Bowden's clarinet and baritone saxophone, trumpet master Ameen Muhammad, vocalist Yoko Noge, violinist Jonathan Chen, young saxophonists Taku Akiyama and Toru Hironaka, trap drummer Mia Park, and four Taiko drummers (including Aoki). A true epic.

Bassist Tatsu Aoki is not only dynamic as a player, but is also the Executive Director of Asian Improv Records, and the international producer for Southport Records. Southport records continues it's tradition of recording and producing new music from Chicago to a world market. Media, we appreciate your support!
