5.0 out of 5 starsMusic for the 21st Century
By A Customer on June 10, 1999
Format: Audio CD
Along with Radiohead's "OK Computer", Prodigy's "Fat Of The Land" and The Verve's "Urban Hymns", Primal Scream's "Vanishing Point" is truly music for the next millenium. From the sitars of the opener to the final sonic chaos of the last track this truly is a great album. This is not to say, however, that it is everyone's cup of tea, far from it. As with most great recordings it takes a few listens before the music really grips you. This is a highly recommended CD for the person who thinks a little bigger than college radio!

5.0 out of 5 starsTheir Best Album!
By Dutch on June 15, 2000
Format: Audio CD
In spite of the overwhelming praise lavished upon XTRMNTR, this one is better. Combining house and techno with traditional blues/rock and unique sound bytes, Vanishing Point is the Dark Side of the Moon for Primal Scream. "Kowalski," "Star," and "Medication" are each extremely different and somehow they all fit. Still, singles lovers should be warned that this album is a mood piece, and the mood is paranoia. "Star" encourages resistance against oppression with a constant look over the shoulder. Anyone who doesn't like to invest time in listening to something that builds and builds but never comes down should stay away. This is a post-industrial warning that probably came a little too late.

5.0 out of 5 starsKiller waves
By Trip Cannon on January 15, 2000
Format: Audio CD
When I popped this CD in for the first time my head literally exploded in deep-seated audio delight! Burning Wheel is a masterpiece of spatial sound and music being combined into one super smooth burst of energy. It only gets better from there, trust me.

4.0 out of 5 starsvery, very interesting
By J. Brady on February 8, 2005
Format: Audio CD
And a damn sight better than their Rolling Stones "tribute" album that preceeded it, Vanishing Point is a return to what Primal Scream do best. A marriage of guitars, synths, twisted vocals, drugged out rhythms ( both fast and slow - you get the idea that some songs were recorded under the influence of speed, some while on heroin) and psychedelic production touches. One minor gripe: when I first popped this into my cd player, the opening track "Burning Wheel" caught my attention. "I've heard this chord sequence, these sounds, before." After listening a few times, I thought I'd thumb through the cd booklet and find sampling credits for Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive" only to discover that this track is listed as a band composition. For shame!!!! Otherwise this is agreat cd. Highlights include the cover of "Motorhead", done as electronica, and the title track to "Trainspotting" ten-plus minutes of slowly unwinding, euphoria inducing, trance like psychedelia. A keeper, for sure.

4.0 out of 5 starsGoes Out On A Limb and Hangs On
By Kevin Barrack VINE VOICE on March 9, 2001
Format: Audio CD
This album contains a very eclectic mix of musical and production styles. While it is often compared to Dark Side of the Moon, the melodies which are reminiscent of Pink Floyd sound a lot more like early Floyd than any of Floyd's hit albums.
But this album is much more diverse in style than that. "Get Duffy" is an instrumental that reminds me of Kruder & Dorfmeister or Air in its analog techno sound. "Motorhead" has enough grit and samples to pass for a Ministry song.
This album will hook you on Primal Scream. It is easier to listen to than XTRMNTR, and is a better place to start for a first time listener. I also think this album has a more mature sound than their earlier albums: less ear candy and more song crafting.

5.0 out of 5 starsA Gem
By A Customer on December 30, 2002
Format: Audio CD
This album tempts one to be fascist about their musical taste. I rarely comment on an album unless it is so good that I am driven to power up my laptop, fire up amazon.com, search for "primal scream" and choose to write a review. There's a lot of talent on this album, and it can appeal to the electronic/dance spinners as well as the "wall of sound/not quite industrial" new-wavers. Pick it up. It's very good.

4.0 out of 5 starsSIGNALS THROUGH THE FLAMES
By Eduardo C. Dayao on November 6, 2000
Format: Audio CD
Primal Scream's dance-rock grafting musical vision may have been what everybody in the E'd-up Madchester scene were doing but it was with 1991's pigeonhole-dodging "Screamadelica" that the karaoke indie-rockers became our beloved revolutionary sweethearts. Restless and fidgety , "Screamadelica" was rock on jumper cables: an ecstatic groovallegiance that channeled singer and ringleader Bobby Gillespie's love for Al Green and "Exile on Main Street" through a superchunk of chemical dub, techno-gospel, spooky blues and drugged-up disco that felt like spiritual liftoff. Residue of Gillespie's Protestant upbringing? Too much drugs? Or heavenly action for real? Whatever. "Screamdelica" often sounded like accessing the divine. "Vanishing Point" re-establishes the Scream as a state-of-the-art rock band but the gospel oxygen of "Screamdelica" has become carbon-monoxide emissions. These are the withdrawal symptoms of the transcendental epiphanies of "Screamadelica" . This ain't no party. This ain't no disco. But Gillespie hardly loses his religion. "Burning Wheel" kickstarts: agit and spoiling for a dustup, giving the record away. But. Bleak and oily as "Vanishing Point" may be, everything still finishes up with murmurs of salvation. When he sings, by the end of the set, in the languid "Long Life", that "it's good to be alive", Bobby Gillespie sounds wan, wasted. But convinced. This is the OST not just of a junkie crashland, but ultimately, his revival, too. The din of riding out addiction's vortex from headrush to redemption. And what a redemption!Read more ›
