The fifth album from the celebrated songwriter/producer continues the gradual warming of his sound, balancing his signature crushing sadness with moments of hope and acceptance.
The 30th anniversary edition of these alt-rock figureheads' fifth album includes previously unreleased studio tracks and a full concert performance from 1991.
Along with Faust's essential first four albums, this box set includes an album recorded at Giorgio Moroder's studio and other fascinating unreleased material.
Following hot on the heels of The Strokes, this album felt somehow even more brash and bratty, incorporating elements of The Clash and The Kinks into their perfectly sloppy delivery. Guitars skronk and voices crack on this dangerous-feeling debut where the listener is knocked off-kilter, never knowing if the songs will successfully land, even two decades later.
One of the most disastrous releases of the 2000s, Glitter deserves a revisit. After two decades of hindsight buffer and a contextualized reevaluation of how her sound (and voice) changed soon after, this set reveals itself as a true hidden gem of R&B-pop;, some of the final examples of Carey's peak vocal abilities and pop savvy. She just doesn't sound like this anymore and it's about time for a Justice for Glitter campaign.
