4.0 out of 5 stars
The warmest welcome to Hell?,
By A Customer
This review is from: As Above So Below (Audio CD)
Quite simply, an impressive talent. The almost omnipresent sense of religious perspective that runs through this album gives shape to a very complete and rounded whole. Stand-out moments are the horn arrangements on "Jazz Devil" and the sheer intensity of "Still I Rise" which builds and continues to build like there's no stopping it. A refreshing listen, and gloriously dark around the edges.

This review is from: As Above So Below (Audio CD)
i'm a huge fan of mr. adamson's work, and this album is some of his finest. his lyrics are descriptive ("...just a poorer imitation of the man i most resemble..."), inviting ("...take a small vacation from the hospital of sorrows..."), metaphorical ("...you can play the instruments, and i'll play the buffoon..."). a former bassist for The Bad Seeds, he shares mr. cave's affection for the romanticized tragic figure. jazz inflections and big band references mingle with r&b and rap (even a sample from Public Enemy!) to create an album unlike any other in recent memory. extremely listenable, i find myself humming infectious lines from these songs all the time.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Probably his best......,

Excellent... I'd say more but I believe after a listen or two words won't give this album the accolades it deserves.
