Review
If her 1999 debut album reflected the post-folk, torch-singing side of ex-One Dove vocalist Dot Allison's character, this sophomore effort, We Are Science, demonstrates quite a different facet. Much of the album takes its cue from 1980s pretenders Fischerspooner or the avant electrosonics of Adult. The songs are still here, of course, with the dirgelike title track and repetitively voxed "I Think I Love You" countered by the stirring "Strung Out" and aching "Lover," both of which feature Mercury Rev's Grasshopper. But where the first album married odd collaborators with an expansive cast of musicians, this second is a more low-key affair, with Allison and Lone Swordsman Keith Tenniswood's production less acid-house than quiet-night-in-the-living-room material. --Kingsley MarshallThe follow up to her 1999 solo debut 'Afterglow', marks Allison's return to electronic music. Dark, heavy & utterly contemporary, it's influenced as much by the Detroit Eratz Audio label's current roster as by the more classic 80's Factory sound of Joy Division & New Order. Written & produced by Allison with additional production courtesy of Dave Fridmann (the Delgados, Mercury Rev, Flaming Lips) & Keith Tenniswood (Two Lone Swordsmen). Contains three U.S. exclusive bonus tracks, 'substance' (Felix Da Housecat Remix), 'We're Only Science' (Slam remix) & 'Strung Out' (Video). Mantra. 2002.The Sophomore Album from the Former Lead Singer of the Much Loved Band One Dove. Now on the Mantra Label (Along with St. Etienne), She Has Followed Up her Debut 'afterglow' with 10 More Songs from Deep in her Soul. That Darkness is Only Too Apparent from the Moment You Put the CD in the Player. There's a Real Edge to this Record. It Might Only Be Allison's Third in Just Over a Decade, but It's Worth the Wait. By Returning to her Roots, She's Succeeded in Making a Record Totally of the Moment. A Record that Feels Like Home.
