	Dead Can Dance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dead Can Dance is a band that comprises Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry.
		Assigning a musical genre to Dead Can Dance is difficult, as their style was particularly eclectic.
		Though Toward the Within is their only official live album, Dead Can Dance released limited edition recordings of thirteen shows from their 2005 European tour, as well as a compilation entitled Selections from Europe 2005.

	Dead Can Dance - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		In their later work, after The Serpent's Egg, Dead Can Dance would take as sources ancient or foreign music from around the world, with Gerrard singing glossolalia, giving them a very distinctive style (world music).
		The album artwork [of their self titled first album], a ritual mask from New Guinea, attempted to provide a visual reintrepretation of the meaning of the name "Dead Can Dance".
		Though the album was never completed, "The Lotus Eaters" was eventually released on the box set Dead Can Dance (1981-1998) as well as the 2-disc Wake.

	Ectophiles' Guide - Dead Can Dance (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Over time they have moved from medieval and dark (within the realm, serpent's egg, spleen and ideal, dead can dance) to more renaissance (aion), then most lately world music and folk (into the labyrinth, toward the within, spiritchaser, though these albums are mixed with the other genres).
		I guess I'm trendy...I don't care much for Lisa Gerrard's vocals on this album; with the exception of "The Wind That Shakes The Barley", her vocals are a little too ethnic for me (and to think I own two Ofra Haza CDs!) I much prefer her on, say, Within the Realm of a Dying Sun.
		An excellent new addition to the Dead Can Dance catalogue, but definitely not their best effort (I'm still partial to Spleen and Ideal and Within the Realm of a Dying Sun).

		Dead Can Dance is to be listened by your spirit.
		I myself can't believe there can be a owner of such a voice in this earth, a voice that brings the feeling of sacred things and its strentgh mesmerizes you as if it was begging to be listened.
		My first impression when I listened to this album was the very same I had years ago, when I had a DCD album for the first time on my hands: an invitation for a travel you can't resist.

		In 1981, Perry formed Dead Can Dance with Lisa Gerrard, Paul Erikson, and Simon Monroe.
		In the spring of 1984, they released their eponymous debut album, comprised of songs the pair had written in the previous four years.

	Dead Can Dance: Dead Can Dance/Spleen And Ideal/The Serpent's Egg/A Passage in Time/Into the Labyrinth/Toward the Within
		This is their first album, recorded in 1984, and it's a collection of the songs they had written between 1980 and 1984.
		Although Dead Can Dance have never reached what could be called a big audience, their compositions are very good, and should deserve a wider recognition.
		Musically this album is somewhere between their self-titled album and the music that they were to develop even further on the albums they released later on in their career.

		I'm not a big Dead Can Dance fan, and haven't heard her solo album, so I was completely taken back by the strength and range of her voice.
		I like all kinds of Dead Can Dance songs, whether Brendan Perry or Lisa Gerrard seemed to be the dominant force in a song.
		Lisa Gerrard is my real attraction to Dead Can Dance, and her solo album, The Mirror Pool, is excellent and a must-have for all Dead Can Dance fans.

	Lisa Gerrard: album reviews and ratings
		Aided by longtime percussionist Pieter Bourke, the Dead Can Dance mainstay swoops kingfisher low one minute and soars kestrel high the next, from an aerie of gothic keyboards and tribal drums.
		Although in the richness of the musical tapestries she now weaves, Gerrard has moved far beyond the Gothic visions and sensibility of the early Dead Can Dance recordings, there is still something dark, dense and slightly imposing about the music on this album.
		Dead Can Dance's "Desert Song" are also sampled on this album.

	JED's Favorite Music
		The synthesized themes are rich and dense, the album flows well from song to song, and the lyrics seem to be a bit more ironic than usual (though I am not the best judge of that).
		Their other albums are too smug and knowing to sustain my interest, but this is a keeper.
		I bought the album and found that it was more hard-edged and dark than I had expected, which may explain my continuing fascination with it.

		Dead Can Dance went down in acrimonious flames in 1998, but that didn't stop its founders, Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard, from getting together for a sold-out world tour in 2005.
		If you are like me and missed the "Dead Can Dance" phenomenon in the '80's and early 90's and are wondering if they are worth a listen, I say take a pass.
		For a 'best of' album though, a few great songs are noticeably missing (I think it'd be impossible to fit a true 'best of' DCD on one disc though), and they have already released a few compilations with much, if not all, of this material on them.

	Dead Can Dance Interview
		The haunting soundscapes that Dead Can Dance weave have become so demanding in both their conception and execution that Gerrard has little time to listen to anything else.
		Instead of sounding schizophrenic however, under the therapy of the music the two characters are woven together, giving a greater scope to the album on the whole.

	TrouserPress.com :: Dead Can Dance
		By A Passage in Time, Dead Can Dance's increasing awareness of European classicism and ancient musics (predominately Celtic and Middle Eastern) had blossomed into archaic mastery, married to an intriguing lyrical bent for myth and symbolism.
		Additionally, the album includes the newly recorded "Bird" and "Spirit." Many of these masterfully arranged songs whirl headlong into the Renaissance, to a sonic realm where somber Gregorian chants ("The Song of the Sibyl," "Song of Sophia") and jaunty maypole dances ("Saltarello") have never left the hit parade.
		The wailing Middle Eastern sway prevalent on latter-day Dead Can Dance material rarely comes to the fore ("Swans" is an exception); without her more visceral partner's input, Gerrard's debut is almost too ethereal.

		Because I just got this album and what do you know I have heard it before ; a long time ago (maybe ten years or so) someone lent me a tape of this great music - I played it constantly, eventually had to give it back, and couldn`t remember the title or artist later on.

		Dead Can Dance's final album Spiritchaser was something of an unusual release - it's not as much of an anomaly as the first album, but one can hear the duo wanting to stretch a bit more, however subtly.
		Both Perry and Gerrard are in fine voice throughout, their strong singing still the centerpiece of their work, but there's almost an air of predictability to their approaches at this point (perhaps explaining Perry's greater experimentation on his solo debut years later).
		Possibly their finest album, Throwing Muses' fifth album, University, blends the rock power of Red Heaven, their first effort as a trio, with the shiny, surreal pop of The Real Ramona.

		However, the mere existence of Dead Can Dance is firmly entrenched upon an evolutionary amalgam of the '80s noir industrial scene with sonic styles and patterns indelibly rooted in world music.
		Although augmented by various supporting musicians, at the creative and artistic center of Dead Can Dance has remained the team of Brendan Perry (guitar) and Lisa Gerrard (vocals).
		Their seven studio albums and Garden of the Arcane Delights EP are amply represented during the three-and-three-quarter-hour running time.

		City Canyons Records is exceedingly proud to add Peter Ulrich, the noted percussionist from the legendary Dead Can Dance to its roster.
		His music recalls "Dead" but has an an exotic flavor of its own, blending seamlessly an array of musical genres--darkwave, dream-pop, ancient and medieval, new age, world and ethnic-- into a lush tapestry.
		Below are samples of select songs from the album ENTER THE MYSTERIUM--but be aware that you may never return to the world as you knew it once you have crossed into this new world's realm.

		Many Dead Can Dance fans point to Aion as a good introduction to Dead Can Dance (and ethereal or heavenly voices styled music), and with good reason.
		This is the greatest CD I have heard from Dead Can Dance and I have heard them all and yes Enter the Labyrinth was not far behind.

	Dead Can Dance : Dead Can Dance - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Bearing much more resemblance to the similarly gripping, dark early work of bands like the Cocteau Twins and the Cure than to the later fusions of music that would come to characterize the duo's sound, Dead Can Dance is as goth as it gets in many places.
		Perry and Gerrard's wonderful vocal work -- his rich, warm tones and her unearthly, multi-octave exaltations -- are already fairly well established, but serve different purposes here.
		The album ends on a fantastic high note -- "Musica Eternal," featuring a slowly increasing-in-volume combination of hammered dulcimer, low bass tones, and Gerrard's soaring vocals.

		Six of the album's eight tracks were produced and arranged by Dead Can Dance's Brendan Perry at the Quivvy Church studio; while two cuts were recorded and co-produced by long-time 4AD producer John A. Rivers.
		He was involved for many years, appearing on the recordings Dead Can Dance, Garden of the Arcane Delights, Within the realm of a dying sun, and Spiritchaser; as well as touring with the band from 1983 - 90.

	Dead Can Dance: album reviews and ratings
		The rather distorted sound quality of this album fails to deliver the vocals of both Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard.
		On Severance, Brendan Perry complements Lisa's introduction to the LP with lyrics emoting feelings of oppression and anguish, reflecting the deep impression left on this self-indulgent group by the macabre poetry of Baudelaire.
		Utilizing traditional instruments in untraditional combinations, Dead Can Dance have created a sound that is distinctly their own, and instantly recognizable.

		Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard formed Dead Can Dance in the early 1980s in Australia, moving to London before the release of their self-titled debut in '84.

		The last album from Autechre was Draft 7.30 released in July of 2003 on Warp Records.
		Despite all the influences of different music styles, this is an album of Pop Rock songs with a Pop structure, very tastefully produced, beautifully arranged, and intensively interpreted with a very personal voice.
		The album features basist/vocalist Les Claypool from Primus, and drummer Danny Carey from the band Tool which was supporting King Crimson's last tour.
