Description
The emotional and dynamic compositions were developed in London, Vienna, and Tokyo alongside the leading innovators and artists of the world. Evan Parker, Keith Rowe, and more musical inspirations provide a backdrop to "Manafon" and a counter balance to Sylvian's dominant and striking vocals.
The album acts as a monologue that is carried by every note. Each song is individual yet a vital piece to the album as a whole. From the very first song, the listener is captivated. The leading track, "Small Metal Gods," may be initially perceived as egotistical, but by delving deeper into the whole performance, not simply the lyrics, it is turned into a piece of self reflection written in the third person. The momentum achieved in this first track is not lost as the album progresses. Each song that follows on Sylvian's "Manafon" will have you sitting closer to the edge of your seat, just to make sure a single line, measure, or note does not escape your ears.
