Spiritualized

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Formed from the ashes of the trance-rockers Spacemen 3, singer/guitarist Jason Pierce's group Spiritualized did not break away from his prior band's trademark hypnotic minimalism; instead, they perfected it. Drawing on the continued influence of the Velvet Underground, La Monte Young, and Steve Reich, Spiritualized staked out a common ground between minimalism and lush symphonics -- while powered by simple, repetitious motifs, their songs simultaneously blossomed into rich, shimmering sonic panoramas inspired by the majestic studio wizardry of Phil Spector...[more]

 

 

Jason Pierce has finally returned from his long absence and a battle with illness to deliver the much awaited follow-up to Amazing Grace. The result of this hiatus is Songs In A&E a return to form for the king of epic space-rock. From the soulful swells of lead single "Soul on Fire" to the closing moments of "Goodnight Goodnight" this album will make you fall in love with Spiritualized all over again.

Spiritualized's third collection of hypnotic headphone symphonies is their most brilliant and accessible to date. Largely forsaking the drones and minimalistic, repetitive riffs which have characterized his work since the halcyon days of Spacemen 3, Jason Pierce re-focuses here and spins off into myriad new directions; in a sense, Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space, with its majestic, Spector-like glow, is his classic rock album. "Come Together" and the blistering {&"Electricity   [ read more ]

The new lp Amazing Grace was essentially recorded in only three weeks at Rockfield Studios last October, it represents Spiritualized at their most exciting, energized, raw and heartfelt. The tracks were recorded live, with the band learning each song from scratch and realising a finished take usually within a day. According to Spiritualized's J Spaceman it is the ?least constructed and best recorded lp Spiritualized have made." Highly Recommended.

The group's seminal debut album is aptly titled: The melodies shimmer and drone and hum like otherworldly pop tunes, and Radley and Pierce's vocals hover gently in the mix. One of the premier dream pop albums, Lazer Guided Melodies is both beautiful and innovative.

An EP that allows Jason Pierce to get some of the excess material from Let It Come Down out of his system, Do It All Over Again is almost long enough to be a full album. The title track is Spiritualized's first true venture into traditional British rock, and Pierce proves he has the emotional maturity and songwriting chops to deliver a track that would do Supergrass proud. Another take of it, dubbed the "Evening Session Version," turns the song into a meandering and sparse ballad tha   [ read more ]

After the arduous process of making 2001's hyper-orchestrated Let It Come Down and hearing the fierce, back-to-basics rock of bands like the White Stripes and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Jason Pierce vowed that the next Spiritualized album would be a departure from the excesses of his previous efforts. In some aspects, Amazing Grace makes good on his word: right down to its cover art -- a photo of a naked arm, free of any ornament (or track marks) -- the album makes a show of its simpl   [ read more ]

Who would have thought that Jason Pierce's Spiritualized would have had any life in them after the rather uninspiring Amazing Grace in 2003? In the intervening five years, Pierce nearly died from double pneumonia. Near death experiences by their very nature are life-changing events. The music on Songs in A&E were recorded in that aftermath, but most of the album was written two years before he got sick; with so much of it about near death and survival, it feels like life imitating art.
