Andromeda - Turns To Dust: The Complete Andromeda - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: Definitive 5CD anthology of highly regarded late 60s British rock band. Includes their sole album and single, alternative versions, out-takes, previously unissued demos, a Radio 1 session and tracks from related bands. Andromeda were formed in mid-1968 by guitarist, vocalist and chief songwriter John Cann after the gradual collapse of his previous band, mod/psych legends The Attack. A John Peel session saw the trio briefly come under the DJ's wing before they signed to RCA. Released in late 1969, their self-titled album attracted highly positive reviews, and is now regarded by many collectors as a definitive example of the nascent British hard rock sound. But it failed to sell, and Andromeda imploded when Cann jumped ship to join Atomic Rooster, where he wrote and sang Top Five single 'Devil's Answer'. While there have been numerous Andromeda compilations over the last 35 years, the five- CD set Turns To Dust The Complete Andromeda brings everything under one roof, adding some previously unreleased acetates and correcting various long-standing errors of annotation, dates and titles. The first four CDs collect everything recorded by the band, while Disc Five rounds up the pre-Andromeda story with tracks from The Attack and more obscure ventures, including two previously unissued cuts from the first outfit that Cann and bassist Mick Hawksworth had played in together, The Mailtown Blues Band. While previous Andromeda compilations have optimistically claimed to be definitive, Turns To Dust is undoubtedly the final word on a legendary late 60s British rock band. Album Tracks 1. Too Old 2. Day of the Change 3. And Now the Sun Shines 4. Turns to Dust a) Discovery B) Sanctuary C) Determination 5. Return to Sanity a) Breakdown B) Hope C) Conclusion 6. The Reason 7. I Can Stop the Sun 8.

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8. Dai the Flu 9. Headup 10. MX
