 Bliss......NOBTM the best
Submitted on: 2009-10-26 |

I have been listening to this CD for over six months through [...]. It was sent to me by one of my friend in Europe. But of course it was available there for so many months and now it is going to be mine here in the US. Bliss is one of most extraordinary groups, I have had the pleasure of running across in my forty-seven years. They never fail to please and comfort @ the same time. This is one group you should keep up with and give a listen to!!!!!!!!!!

 Huge Disappointment

I am such a HUGE fan of this Denmark group and willingly pay a higher price for their imports (**be careful--several groups, for some wacky reason, all have this same name. "Bliss UK" is NOT this group!).
It seems it took forever for this album to be released, and I was practically drooling all over myself when it finally appeared. Long story short: that Sophie chick from Zero 7 must have financially backed it or something, for although I usually like her voice "here and there," this entire thing is like a demo for her. Frankly, and I never thought I would ever say this, I find some of her vocals here quite grating. And amateurishly experimental sounding, which she is not. The fabulous arrangements and the outstanding abilities of the musicians are still here, but on the whole, I am sadly disappointed. That said, my fav track is "American Heart" with Boy George et al. I guess I'm just going to sit back and wait another five years or so for their next one and hope it will be as good as their previous three (Afterlife, Quiet Letters, They Made History) that I have. |

| Simply put, this is another great CD in the collection of Bliss' works. The tracks continue Bliss' trademark mix of musical styles and all of them are worth listening to. This will undoubtedly be one of my favorite CDs of 2009. |

Bliss makes you believe in love

Every music lover knows that one artist that no one else does and are always trying to shove their music down peoples throats. For me, that band is Bliss. I first heard their hit song Kissing on a chill-out compilation ("kissing" holds the record for the most compiled song ever) about 6 years ago and can still remember the first time I heard it. It was like experiencing everything I've ever felt and wanted to feel from love all at once. It was beautiful. Naturally I bought their album Quiet Letters: U.S. Edition and have become a major fan ever since.
Their latest album "No One Built This Moment" is another shining example of the perfection that is Bliss. While many of the songs are largely instrumental, the emotion and beauty is just as present as when vocal goddess Sophie Barker accompanies. Every song is expertly produced in the highest sound quality that is heart stopping on a great surround sound system.
While there wasn't a track quite as fantastic as "kissing" I found that track 3 "Trust In Your Love" came really close. It's a breath-taking song about putting your faith in love instead of worrying about losing it. Other highlights included "Calling" "Light to Your Life" and "The Hope". Essentially, however, this is an ALBUM. Unlike most music now days that focus on 1 mp3 wonders, this is designed to be listened to from start to finish. No skips, no fast forwards, no pauses. Every track seems to float into the next, creating 60 minutes of soundscape that you simply won't get from any other chill out artist or compilation.
Now I see that this import is $30 and that does sound a little high even for something of this quality, so I really hope they release a US edition as well or are able to lower the price. Honestly, however, it really IS worth it. I can't praise this band enough. The production quality, the vocalists.. it's all perfect. If you have any interest in this kind of music, you will need this CD in your collection. |
