2008-07-21 04:46:12 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hawkwind off as one-hit wonders... or even one chord wonders, but this is a perfect space rock album, with not a note out of place The thing with Hawkwind, well, the thing with Hawkwind is that you either get it or you don't - and if you don't, it's probably a mystery why they have such a devoted hardcore of fans See, Hawkwind isn't about the...

...Hawkwind and a major change in sound compared to the previous album Doremi Fasol Latido which was released in 1972. Doremi Fasol Latido is maybe the most heavy and dirty album Hawkwind ever made while Hall of the Mountain Grill has a much more symphonic sound The music is still unmistakebly Hawkwind. Insistant relentless beats, psychadelic...

Hawkwinds Out of The Shadows was a pleasant little surprise as it features some innovative stage lighting and an overall quality sound. However there are many flaws and this review will not hold back from pointing them out in detail. What could have been great is really a mediocre attempt First of all if you are expecting semi-clad dancing girls...

...Hawkwind was a nice surprise for me. Im a newbie to the band and the only thing I know about Hawkwind is that Lemmy from Mötorhead once played in the band. Hawkwind is of course nothing like Mötorhead though and Lemmy doesnt appear on this debut album from Hawkwind The music is psychadelic rock with a pretty repetitive beat and some...

...Hawkwind Spaceship. Brock, Lemmy, Dettmar, King, Turner backed up by the bizarre space effects of Dik Mik and emblazoned over this is the most surreal poetry of Calvert. This is not music, its an adventure into pyschedelia at its highest level. The album sounds like a proto Motorhead journey into space. The Hawkwind trademark of weird spacey...

...Hawkwind`s 5th studio album foretells the imagery and legend which inhabit the grooves on this psychedelic sci fi / fantasy freakout. Loosely based on Michael Moorcock`s 1970 fantasy novel, The Eternal Champion, themes are also borrowed from American Fireside poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and English romantic Percy Shelley to convey the...

HAWKWIND - Church of Hawkwind (1982)

2008-04-19 16:40:44 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Hawkwind period (82-83) is probably not the best one for the band Church Of Hawkwind is a collection of short songs dominated by electronic / computer and spacey background sounds. To make some illusion, I guess. Most of the songs are similar and there is not much to retain from such a work. This is by far the worst Hawkwind album so far Some...

...Hawkwind set themselves in stone as masters of their craft. Blending hard rock and 70s heavy metal tenancies with spacey sounds and psychedelic song construction, this album blends the familiar Hawkwind of old with a new style that they perfect here. Where as on previous albums the sound came off as almost an ocean of inscrutable and messy...

...Hawkwind albums and each track merges in to one another to provide an overall sound experience unlike any other Hawkwind album Before we get in to the music, the cover alone has become an icon of rock, voted as one of the all time best album covers in many respected album lists. The Hawkwind spaceship has crashlanded on this cover, a...
