P'Taah - Staring At The Sun, March 4, 2011
This review is from: Staring at the Sun (Audio CD)
Disappointing. After the beauty of COMPRESSED LIGHT, STARING AT THE SUN seems much too much like Brann's other alias, the Ananda Project. Indeed, many of the chord progressions and synth pads on this album are identical to the Ananda Project albums. Terrance Downs' vocals -- as good as they are -- lend a somewhat bland R&B vibe that aren't present on COMPRESSED LIGHT. Towards the end, "Arise" and "Surrendering" begin to reclaim some of the personality so prevalent in P'Taah's earlier work, but it comes a tad too late. Let's hope Brann's able to regain his footing.
