from the text: “This September, award-winning comedian, writer, actor and presenter Russell Brand curates One Voice: Cracked – a night of seven one-off solo performances written in response to the growing conversation and changing attitudes around mental health and addiction”

Dead Can Dance - Dionysus Review

Dionysus it's really an unexpected album. First of all because there are only two tracks, which last more than ten minutes each, when usually contemporary songs last 3 minutes. Second of all because there are just a few solo parts, when we were used to hear Lisa or Brendan singing as solo. Instead in this record they usually sing together or with a beautifully arranged choir. Third of all the lenght is the same as their first records, on the other hand the sharp endings of the songs makes believe the album should have been longer. But that's the point Brendan and Lisa are aware of what they are doing. There's a reason why they don't sing much solo parts and why the choose to connect all the tracks together and also why every act has a sharp end. It's because that was the most appropriate way for representing Dionysus, the god who was often represented on vases, staring at the viewer with a mask. This was very un-expected at those times, beacuse every god/human was represented on their profile. Human beings can't really understand Dionysus, he's half male half female, half human half animal, he's wearing a mask, all those characteristics defines him as an ambiguous being, for sure not definable. That's why the songs in this album have sharp ends, it's like it's like trying to get a glimpse behind the mask and finding instead another mask of Dionysus staring at the viewer/listener while he/she's trying to undertsand him. Talking about theater, in tragedies (tragedy in greek means goat song, that's why there's a goat in 'The Mountain') the choir is more important than protagonists or individual actors (the picture of a theater is also present in the booklet), because in Ancient Greece the comunity was more important than the indvidual, that's how democracy was born. That's why also every individual track is connected. Also i've found very interesting the fact that Lisa is cleverly imitating birds and animals when she sings in Psychopomp, infact Dionysus was often linked with animals and satyres (half man, half animal). I think this album is really a punch in the face, because it's really what people wasn't expecting a new dead can dance album to be. In addition to this it is also so well made, the music is so interesting and the album is so conceptual and deep. I think we should listen more and more to this masterpiece, beacuse all could be revealed in good time with each listen. 10/10 Federico Anselmi
