Negative Positive
Title: Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Review: How do I even admit to actually loving this, after spending 15 years in the alternative trenches with Husker Du, Sonic Youth and Nirvana. Yet there is something really majestic about this album, particularly when heard in this DVD-Audio format. Before they got rich, fat and old, Emerson Lake and Palmer, especially with this album, made quite a compelling case for symphonic rock, a trajectory in rock history that really never amounted to much (probably because actual mastery of instruments fell out of fashion). The aural definition in this issue is just stunning and I highly recommend it to those who want to give DVD-Audio a try and to those who want to discover or rediscover ELP and why they were such a monster act in the 70s.
Is the review positive or negative?
