Negative Positive
Title: Very good
Review: EOE could be the strangest rock band on earth, consisting of Eraldo Bernocchi (guitars, samples), Bill Laswell (basses) and Mick Harris (drums). "Veve" is one of the best records either artist has done. I wouldn't place it on a par with Scorn's masterpiece "Evanescence", because it lacks diversity in sound, but it is far preferable to Mick's and Bill's later-era solo recordings. The overall sound is dark, powerful and distorted, thanks to Mick's slow but harsh drum beats and Bill's croaking deep-sea basslines. But sometimes EOE manage it to sound even a *bit* friendly, particularly on "Aether" with its beautiful synth samples. All in all, "Veve" is a surprisingly accessible album and provides a true listening adventure.
