Product Description

From Amazon.com

From the way people talk, you'd think Steve Albini was an extraterrestrial dropped in our midst or an unpredictable chemical agent introduced into an experiment that has grown depressingly stable. Terraform, the latest record from Shellac, takes this notion and blasts off, adding new, albeit alien, growth to a sterile environment (rock music). The seemingly endless first song, "Didn't We Deserve a Look at You the Way You Really Are," features a numbingly repetitive bass and drums figure with a few fluctuations. After a while (don't ask me how long; time doesn't exist here) Albini's guitar makes tentative scratches, like a timid cat wanting to be let in, before the inevitable eruption. Then the whole process begins again. Futuristic? Or maybe just a bizarro world version of "Stranglehold"? Other pieces conceal (in plain sight) references to Iggy, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, and The Yardbirds. It's classic rock, all right. But not as we know it. --John Chandler

5.0 out of 5 stars Copper will never be gold, 2007/5/25
金属を思わせる攻撃的で無秩序なギター、
無機質なベース音に、息を飲むドラム。
音数は少ない。しかし、その空間が音になる。
そこから来る高揚感…

歌詞はとても少なく、時に叫びであり、時にお経のように。
"Copper will never be gold"
銅は決して金にはなれないのだ。

他のバンドにはない唯一の音がここにはある。

12分にも及ぶ「Didn't We 〜」で動き始める宇宙船。shellacの手招きする無重力の宇宙までもうすぐだ。

5.0 out of 5 stars  , 2002/12/24
By refgv - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
USインディーシーンにその名を轟かすエンジニア、スティーヴアルビニが中心となり活動しているバンドの2nd。

相変わらず、こけおどしの音圧に頼らないサウンドで素晴らしい。
機材の進歩によって、ただデカイ音を出してるだけの、無意味なバンドが溢れているなかで、この人は出すべき音を知っている。

攻撃的、狂気、そんな言葉が溢れかえり意味を失った現在において、本当に攻撃的で、狂った、音を出せる数少ないアーティストだ。

良質のロックは、必ずしも加速する必要がなければ、音を増やす必要もないのだ。

4.0 out of 5 stars 全てはエンディングのため, 2005/5/5
このアルバムは売れるために曲の粒をそろえようとか、リスナーが聴きやすいように曲を構成しようとかいうことを気にせず、やりたいことを素直に表現したのだと思う。実際、1曲目は、12分ほぼ変わらぬベースフレーズとドラムパターンに、時折アルビニの歌と神経質なギターノイズが絡むといった構成で、その時間に比して体感速度は遅く、聴きやすくは作られていない。また、このアルバム全体的に、アイディアを練ったというよりは、思いついたことをそのままラフに演奏したことを感じさせ、いまいち勢いがガツンと伝わってこない。しかし、最後の曲では、疾走感あふれるリズム、ざっくりとしてぬけのよいギター音、哀愁漂う歌が見事に絡み合い、音の輪郭がはっきりとすると共に、それまでのもやっとした気持ちを払拭してくれる。つまり、彼らは決して聴きやすくない曲をアルバムにちりばめる方法で、この作品の持つカタルシスを最大限に引き出すことに成功しているのである。
