█▓█ Originally released 1981.
█▓█
█▓█ For their fourth album in three years, Simple Minds signed on with Virgin
█▓█ and enlisted Gong's Steve Hillage as producer. The sessions continued the
█▓█ group's impressive run of high-quality output, but there are instances
█▓█ where ambition gets the best of them. Though their work with Hillage
█▓█ hardly spawned anything on a plane with the two albums that preceded it
█▓█ and the one that followed it, it's still a substantial piece of the Simple
█▓█ Minds puzzle. Bridging the art disco of Empires and Dance with the pop
█▓█ masterpiece New Gold Dream, the album falters when the band seems to be
█▓█ reaching a bit too far for their own good. The other stumbling block is
█▓█ Hillage's production: Where the bass lines of Empires and Dance snapped
█▓█ and tugged and where the drums hit with brisk smacks and thick thumps, the
█▓█ echo-gauze of the production work diminishes the impact of the band's
█▓█ greatest asset and makes everything sound bigger and busier than
█▓█ necessary. (The massive qualities of New Gold Dream sound much more
█▓█ natural and less forced in comparison.) The record isn't without moments
█▓█ of brilliance, like the exquisitely detailed "70 Cities As Love Brings the
█▓█ Fall" (a great balance between grand melodies and bizarre noise), the
█▓█ insistently snaking "In Trance As Mission," and "Sweat in Bullet," which
█▓█ has sparkling keyboard parts and crafty guitar interplay. Aside from these
█▓█ moments, the mind tends to wander and wonder if the band was trying to do
█▓█ too much. Upon its release, Sons and Fascination was issued for a limited
█▓█ time with a bonus LP, the scattered Sister Feelings Call, which includes a
█▓█ great pre-Sons and Fascination A-side ("The American"). When Virgin issued
█▓█ Sons and Fascination on CD in 1985, the majority of Sister Feelings Call
█▓█ was tacked to the end. ~ Andy Kellman
█▓█
█▓█ The entire remastered Sister Feelings Call album is released separately.
█▓█ Enjoy!
