5.0 out of 5 stars Perhaps their best, January 3, 2000

LPD have mutated over the years, and they very occasionally reach heights unsurpassed. This has happened on three occasions that come to mind: The Lovers (1984), The Maria Dimension (1990) and Nemesis Online. Nemesis Online is their first really interesting shift in sound since the early 90s, and they owe a lot of it to the production. It's fuller, more distorted in places, more affected. The songs run the gamut from typical LPD ("As Long As It's Purple and Green") to newer sounds ("Zoo"). Outstanding!

4.0 out of 5 stars More Brilliance, December 7, 1999

By 

T. Deus (Southwestern USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nemesis Online (Audio CD)

This release sees the Dots once again shifting shapes. The experimentation missing from much of "Hallway of the Gods" returns to flesh out this solid effort. Overall this is a very listenable album, revealing itself through layers over time (in the traditional LPD style). There are some standout moments to be sure: The irresitible catchiness of "As Long as it's Purple and Green", the haunting atmospheric swirl of "Ghost" (no pun intended), and the scathing bite of "Is it Something I Said?". There is much sound mutation on this LP which gives it less of an organic quality--a better showcase for Ed's voice in my opinion--than some previous studio releases. If you are new to The Legendary Pink Dots, this album is a fine place to start listening to the result of twenty years of brilliance.

4.0 out of 5 stars LPD Rocks!, June 25, 1999

This review is from: Nemesis Online (Audio CD)

Although I'm more of a fan on their more psychedelic works and although clearly not their "best" work, Nemesis Online is a very solid work clearly in the brilliant tradition of Ka'Spellian experimentalism. "Zoo" should be the anthem for the insanity of our more than bestial millinium.
