Erasure — Erasure: Reviews
Pop Perfection....
This is the most 'serious' work done by Erasure, but sadly also one of the most underrated albums of the 90's. Most of the tracks runs 6-7 minutes (71 minutes total), and they all show how Vince Clarke can make his famous analogue synthesizer, the Oberheim Xpander, sound emotional. The album, 'Erasure', even though many fans disliked the album, does in fact also show their well known trademark of electronic (but not necessarily techno) pop.
This album IS Erasure's most beautiful album. The opening Intro 'til the 10 minute track, "Rock Me Gently", is a complete, melodic joy. The only track I don't really appreciate is "Grace" (track #6).
"This is as close as we'll ever get to ambient", Vince Clarke commented when this album was released. I certainly hope that they'll give it yet another try, because this one is definitely an extraordinary work. It must have required a lot of effort to make some of the more complicated arrangements work, such as the long synth solo on "Rock Me Gently".
I'll be listening to this for many more years and would recommend it for anyones music collection. Worth a listen.
