HAMMILL, PETER - Nadir's Big Chance (1975)

2008-11-13 14:09:30 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill, 1974 Just before the big reunion of Van Der Graaf Generator for the amazing Godbluff, Peter Hammill gathered up and recorded this selection of essentially pop/punk songs in so distinctive a fashion that it seems to have caught on quite well with his more eclectically-minded fan base. Naturally, the playing from Banton, Evans and...

HAMMILL, PETER - Over (1977)

2008-02-05 01:42:43 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill's Over, though, has had probably the most profound effect on me out of all the albums I own. I first got it because I knew Hammill from a few of his previous solo albums and Van Der Graff Generator, I listened to it casually and without really letting it all sink in, as its lyrical concept was something I was not experiencing in my...

...Hammills music, in German? Is it so surprising, from an artist thats so complete, in many peoples view? Not at all, the albums quite the enjoyable and refined type you should treat yourself with, even if also catchy beyond its standard Made in simple colors, almost like ein deutsches album with nothing more to it (and here Peter Gabriel also...

HAMMILL, PETER - A Black Box (1980)

The Article has images
2008-06-04 09:51:19 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill decided to dig a bit deeper into the urgent tones of new wave for A Black Box, his farewell to the 70s album. All in all, he is still very determined to solidly retain the exprimental, uncompromising vibe that has (almost) always characterized the writing and recording processes for his discography. In few moments like this you can...

2008-07-11 08:23:50 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill, 1974 StarStarStarStarStar The Silent Corner And The Empty Stage was my first venture into Peter Hammill's solo career, and every bit as stunning as I could have expected. Given that it features my favourite lyricist and vocalist, as well as the assorted members of Van Der Graaf Generator, it couldn't have really flopped for me, but I...

...Hammill's first solo album,it was recorded between the albums "H To He Who Am the Only One" and "Pawn Hearts".Peter himself says VDGG were not going to record these songs for one of their albums,even though they had done demos of them,and played them live.Yet Peter says these songs had a certain validity about them,even if they were fairly...

...Hammill fans this is the one,their favourite.With Banton,Evans and Jackson on board it might as well be a VDGG album right? Well it's probably the most VDGG sounding record that Hammill did anyway.I have to say that this album only recently clicked with me.This was tough going.Experimental and dark,with Peter's tortured and theatrical vocals...

2008-04-03 01:50:45 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill album! The overall tonal pallet of this album is very pleasing to the ear and is very well produced. The drums sound good and so do the well placed guitar work. The first track evokes an almost Metallica feel at the start but then segues into some very restrained yet chaotic singing by the thin man. There are a few tracks which do not...

2008-05-04 12:40:26 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hammill (as Marc Bolan) will have an enormous aura (believe it or not) amongst many punk bands (of which the Pistols are not the least important). A wild and dynamic start. I have never heard the Graaf nor Hammill with such a hard attack. Special, to say the leastIt might have been a source of inspiration for X-Ray Spex (Oh Bondage, Up Yours...
