What you say No-one has reviewed Silent Shout by The Knife yet. Give us your opinion on Silent Shout by The Knife. What we say This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic. Swedish electro pop classisists don't come better than The Knife. Can I just say I didn't rate 'Deep Cuts', the last album AT ALL as i found it too sickly, twee & commercial. Even containing 'Heartbeats' as brought to worldwide acclaim by one Mr. Gonzalez didn't mask it's cheesy stench. 'Silent Shout', the new collection is a far darker & more experimental beast. Totally accessible whilst really pioneering & occasionally left field, it harks back to the alien pop soundscapes of their debut. That wide-eyed, oriental flecked crystaline pulse that I found so thrilling is back. This is the kind of music I relish putting on to totally relax to. If you can imagine an icy cross between Propaganda & Ladytron stranded high on a piste at the pinnacle of the world, surrounded by twinkling stars with barely the minimum amount of oxygen. What the label says: Already a no.1 in their native Sweden, Silent Shout is an astounding achievement, intriguing and bewildering, enigmatic and engaging, and never less than compelling. The songs are rich with detail, thoughts, ideas and innovations piled hard on top of each other. It's jaw-dropping fusion of technology and emotion, circuitry and soul, melodrama and melody will leave you gasping.

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
