Is this really trip-hop? Because it really seems to defy labelling of sorts..,
By JJ (Peterborough, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Between Darkness & Wonder (Audio CD)
As I saunter and tip-toe around one dreamy spiritual track to the next, I realize our beloved Lamb duo has done it yet again. And perhaps, for the last time apparently (I sure hope not!). I picked this up not even 2 years ago and I heard only recently that the duo has parted ways. It seems like they had so much more to offer but it's hard to keep two brilliant minds at bay. Like all things in music and life, you must grow, evolve and take risks in order to flourish or risk becoming stagnant and complacent - which would be a greater tragedy. As for this album, they ended off on a very high note. A seemingly simple, innocent and light facade on the surface gives way to an underlying complexity of rhythms and emotions that are forever thought-provoking. And on the track 'Learn', Lou's voice takes a welcome yet brief departure from her signature sultry airy sound and becomes a richer soprano - albeit too short and fleeting! A timelessness pervades this music which ensures repeated listening long into the distant future..bravo mes ami. This is-was Trip-hop truly redefined.. I seriously hope this will not be their last collaboration! Lou and Andy, musically you were brilliant together! I sincerely wish you 2 to continue weaving this blissful magic for years to come - if not together, then on your own separate solo careers..

I have not been able to stop listening to this album! lamb accomplishes the impossible on this CD: they combine what I would consider to be completely disparate elements to produce a mesmerizing and cohesive auditory experience. The music is masterful in its variety and complexity, including the use of: atypical time signatures, clever syncopation, hypnotic world beat rhythms, strong base lines, electronic sampling, traditional instruments like strings, harp, piano, and guitar, sweet melodies and lush harmonies, and the occasional dissonance juxtaposed to great effect. The result is an incredible collection of compelling (Sugar 5, Sun, Open Up), haunting (Stronger, Learn, Till the Clouds Clear) and beautiful (Angelica, Please, Wonder) songs, with profound and universal lyrics. Only the first and last tracks are less appealing to me, but to have found 9 songs on the same album that I want to listen to over and over again makes this album a rare find.

Trip-hop at its best,

Looking for genre-breaking and fresh sound? Look no further. This is not an album littered with song clips from other artists hooked on an infinite loop. Between darkness and wonder is a contemplative, complex piece of work. Much improvement from Fear of Fours (can't get Gabriel out of my head). Their beats are less harsh and more harmonious with the stealthy and haunting female vocals. What else can i say? good stuff.
