- Sitar work is outstanding - Loved the cover of Jumpin’ Jack Flash - Snow Flower has great percussion, and the synth in the background adds to the tone of the song. - Light My Fire is interesting, but it’s not my favourite cover (my favourite is by Jose Feliciano) - Synth work has been consistently good so far. - Love the acoustic guitar accompaniment in Mamata - Metamorphosis has, as the name suggests, a great change into a fast and hard dance track - Sagar (the ocean) takes a while to get to the point by establishing a very moody sway of the ocean, but gets a bit more energy around the 8 minute mark - Dance Indra has some nice Sitar picks, but it felt a lot like it was missing something. Maybe some singing or a more urgent backing synth. - Raghupati is great. So starved for some vocals, and they work great here!
Tears of Rage - Quite nice, and a lovely tone setter for the album To Kingdom Come - Great rock 'n' roll sound that sits somewhere between The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. In A Station - A bit more of the same as Tears of Rage, but not quite as good Caledonia Mission - Much better lyrics this time around The Weight - Compositionally, this is easily the best song so far. Every instrument fills it's place perfectly, and the lyrics are great! We Can Talk - Great funky and harder-hitting breakdown Long Black Veil - Return to form, nice and good. This Wheel's On Fire - Good tempo for the song, but largely not too dissimilar from Caledonia Mission I Shall Be Released - A nice little soft rock ballad to close out the album Chest Fever - Great organ intro! Really mainlining The Doors on this one. Lonesome Suzie - Lovely lyrics and vibe, but just a _little_ too familiar.
Push It Along - Really nice beat (I suspect this will be a common theme). Cool flows to start the album. The outro intro as well was great. Luck of Lucien - Cool horns! After Hours - Excellent Sampling work Footprints - Enjoyed the sampling of Sir Duke. Great beats I Left My Wallet in El Segundo - Lyrically more interesting banter. More of this please Pubic Enemy - Wild lyrics in this Bonita Applebum - Sexxxxy Can I Kick It - Great samples again. The backing vocals are hype as hell. Yes I can! Youthful Expression - Nice and cool backing again. Rhythm (Devoted to the art of moving butts) - Despite the name and funk of the song, not so good for moving butts. Still good though. Mr. Muhammad - This is the best beat so far. Ham 'N' Eggs - Great bass groove with some whack lyrics. Outro is great still. Go Ahead In The Rain - A little faster and a little more soulful. Description of a Fool - Great closer for the album. Instrumental forward and with fresh vocals.
I liked the consistently prominent drumming sounds. Clean and crisp snares and hi-hats. Bruce's vocals aren't amazing on every song, but they are distinct and he makes it his own. It shines the best handily on I'm On Fire.
