Album Reviews: "Brian Eno" by FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE (9/10)

FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE

Verve/UMC

Producer: Brian Eno

Who’s better at creating galaxies of sound than Eno? Despite his age, the Brit who built ambient is vital as ever. Recorded in the iconoclast’s West London studio, this record hits eardrums like a sonic essay on the beauty of entropy. While everyone else is attempting to soothe humanity’s troubles with end-of-the-world-inspired overindulgence, introspective exercises such as this have more impact. Though one might argue Eno isn’t from this dimension, it will be an irreversible loss when he departs for other realities.
