4.0 out of 5 stars Rob Dougan - Furious Angels April 7, 2011
Format:MP3 Music
Rob Dougan is justly best-known for his track "Clubbed to Death," which first appeared when Mo'Wax was a can't-miss label. And the cinematic quality which marked that track (as well as the track itself) reappear on his debut album, _Furious Angels_. More interesting, Dougan adds his hoarse vocals to his creations, which veer more towards country-western than to pure electronic music. It's an interesting combination, if not an entirely successful one. The title track has a gospel chorus that add tension to some potentially overwrough lyrics. "Will You Follow Me?" sounds as if it came straight off a soundtrack -- John Williams would be proud. Not sure what Mr. Williams would think of the dirge-like "Left Me for Dead," however. At times, Dougan sounds as if he's straining his voice in an attempt at emotion, and it's at odds with the elegant orchestrations. When he doesn't try as hard, as on "There's Only Me," he gets across a sense of desperation and sadness much better, as does the melancholy trip-hop and warbling falsetto of "Nothing At All." Not surprisingly, on the instrumental disc, the tracks in which Dougan's vocals proved problematic feel improved with just the strings, but the ones in which the vocals were an asset feel slightly empty. But the most surprising track would be "Drinking Song," which has much of the simplicity and directness of the Pogues' "Fairytale of New York." It brings romanticism to a drunken haze -- reminiscing with a gravelly voice.

I have listened to this CD and the instrumental version a hundred times. Gets better every time. I hope Rob does another CD someday.

My main purpose in purchasing this album was just to listen to "Clubbed to Death" - the signature sound from "The Matrix". Yeah, sure; I could have bought just that one track but there an instrumental a second remix so I figured I'd just get the whole album (the album cover really caught my eye, too!).

It was the right choice! The music is melancholy, the lyrics are deep and the vocals would feel right at home on a Tom Waits album. The "Drinking Song" convinced me of this.

I read one review describe this as dance tracks you can't dance to. Perfect. I can't dance, anyway.

Tracks like "There's Only Me" and "One And The Same" give a great sense of very personal subject matter. Just when the beats from "Furious Angels" get you going, "Left Me for Dead" and "Born Yesterday" pull you back down and "I'm not driving anymore" is an unlikely pairing of those feelings.

If you fancy the mellow and melancholy (sorry for using that word twice) but still want a beat to move to (even if the movement is just in your own mind), get this album.

One more thing - this is just Disc 1. Disc 2 isn't available on Amazon (digital version, anyways). At least, I can't find it.
