Notes |
Earth, Sun, Moon reins in the rampant excesses of Express while remaining psychedelic; the near-white-out of the cover gives a clue to the music, as many of the songs emerge from a soup of white-noise guitar distortion. Much of the record addresses, in their nebulous fashion, hope and disappointment; the title track and "Youth" are two of their most simple, yet most affecting, songs. Not a "normal" pop record by any means, it is more straight-ahead than their previous work and includes the upbeat single "No New Tale to Tell, " a college radio hit which set the stage for their popular breakthrough a year later. -- Jonathan Ball |
