Lotus Mason - Lotus Mason (Album Review)

The keyboards used for 'Do You Love Me' must have been an in-joke, right? Overlapping cheesy deep voices last used effectively at the very beginning of Queens 'One Vision' make an appearance here, but instead if enhancing an excellent intro like they do in that song, they completely distract here on two occasions in the middle of the track. The sounds used for the melody actually made me laugh too, and the funniest part is this song clearly is supposed to be dead serious.

REM - Life’s Rich Pageant (25th Anniversary Edition) (Album Review)
Music Reviews
Monday, 08 August 2011 Written by James Ball


It’s difficult to review an album that’s been out for 25 years featuring a band whose sound hasn’t really changed an awful lot in that time. What they have done though, listening to the core album through from start to finish, is create a sound that has not aged one bit. It’s hard to believe that in a year the New Kids on the Block debut album, Europe’s 'Final Countdown' and Berlin's 'Take my Breath Away' were doing the rounds, R.E.M were busy making a record that would have a strong, relevant musical style to what they would write 25 years later and it would still sound entirely fresh and original.
