Northern Song
I don't think I've ever
heard an album so given over to silence. In a sense, this album is an acknowledgment
of the ultimate power of silence over music. Listeners wedded to form and structure
and momentum will probably find "Northern Song" unsettling, even exasperating.
Those who can allow themselves to be transported in the few moments a struck
chord endures against the power of silence should find it captivating. Stereo
