Product Description

From Amazon.com

Lyrically and musically, Chorus is less campy and more evangelical than other Erasure creations. It's certainly just as grandiose and danceable as previous albums, but it seems as if songwriter Vince Clarke decided to stop composing smiley-face songs for a while and make a slightly more introspective, more socially observant album. For this reason, Chorus is Erasure's most enduring, most powerful recording. Crowd-cheering samples resound in "Love to Hate You," lending it an almost epic feel. The uplifting "Chorus" hopes for a time when we all treat each other a little better. It may not be the favorite Erasure album among dance-pop enthusiasts, but it's definitely the Erasure album that is meant to be taken seriously. --Beth Bessmer

Chorus~ Erasure is on par with their first album. Yet it gets a prententious and come on none of these guys can really be taken that seriously after all. It is not like Noble comitee will call any day.

4.0 out of 5 stars Breath of life, Nov 25 2003

This review is from: Chorus (Audio CD)
I think I have been a bit too harsh on "Chorus" so I decided to give the cd another spin. After all I am big Erasure fan. I have been listening to "The Very Best of Erasure" a lot lately and the songs from "Chorus" has grown on me over the past couple of weeks, namely the title track and "Breath of Life". Production-wise, the album isn't very good. This is album needs a remastering job ala The Cocteau Twins. The sound is very outdated. The overall mood of the cd is more subdued than say "The Innocents". What "Behaviour" is to the Pet Shop Boys is "Chorus" is to Erasure. The overall mood is darker, moodier, and the beats are more restrained. Although I prefer "The Innocents" or latter works like "Erasure" and "Cowboy", "Chorus" is not as bad as I once thought. It is just not nearly as good as "Erasure", "Cowboy", and even "Loveboat".

5.0 out of 5 stars Erasure at their best, Nov 19 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Chorus (Audio CD)
Chorus

I have every Erasure song ever released commercially, and this is, in my opinion, their best album. Other albums may have stronger singles-it is hard to beat the one-two punch of Drama and Blue Savannah, or Chains of Love and A Little Respect, but this was the first Erasure CD that didn't feel like a collection of singles and b-sides. There are no real weak spots here as on previous efforts. There were four singles taken from this album, and if one didn't know what they were, I think one would be hard pressed to identify them. "Waiting for the Day" is the best Erasure single that never was, and "Turns the Love to Anger" and "Perfect Stranger" are fantastic synthpop songs. It is true, perhaps, that this album may seem darker than others, but the production is gorgeous, the songs are brilliant, Andy Bell's voice has never sounded so rich, and Vince Clark's aural landscape is breathtaking. One of my all-time favorite records.
