Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Crumbling The Antiseptic Beauty and The Splendour of Fear are two of Felt's early albums, both beautifully melodic, both idiosyncratic and awkward. Crumbling The Antiseptic Beauty is their first LP, and feels like it--the rippling guitars are pretty, and it sounds marvellously fresh, though a little unfocussed--but its utter fragility makes it an acquired taste. In its quiet way, The Splendour Of Fear is a minor classic. Mostly instrumental, rich with slow, reverberating guitars, it has an atmosphere all of its own, eerie, brooding and hypnotic. Equidistant from The Byrds and Brian Eno, it's a modest, unsettling beauty. There has never been another band quite like Felt. Their perversity was a consequence of their classicism: they operated according to their own strict aesthetic, which meant that they would never be commercial, despite their records being uniformly beautiful and easy to enjoy. --Taylor Parkes

4.0 out of 5 stars 個性の息吹か。, 2003/3/26
By foxheads - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
1983年にリリースされたバンドとしての初めてのアルバムです。当時はローレンス、モーリス、ニック、ゲイリーの4人組でした。プロデュースはジョン・A・リバース。全編陰鬱なトーンで覆われた、悲しいほどに美しいサウンドを持ったアルバム。どちらかというとポピュラリティに乏しいといか、ほとんど自己満足の世界ですが、3コード・オンリーの繊細なラインのアコースティック・ギターと、ローレンスの呟くようなヴォーカルの響きが素晴らしい。荒削りでチープな初期段階サウンドではあるけれど、ほとんど彼らの基本形の様なものはできあがっているような感じかなあ。類い希なるフェルト・サウンドの原点として、心を広くして聴いてやってください。

5.0 out of 5 stars 白日夢の世界。, 2003/4/15
モノクローム写真のオリジナルジャケットが美しかった、
このアルバムは、まさに白日夢の世界です。
ヴェルベット・アンダーグラウンドの影響も感じられる、
サイケデリックなギターと震えるようなボーカルの本作は、
80年代のネオアコースティック・ブームの夜明けでした。
シンバルとハイハットの金属音を取っ払ったドラムセットによる
低音だけのリズムに、金属的なギター音のマッチングが絶妙。
1曲目のイントロを聴いただけで、白日夢の世界に。。。
