  Bruce Eisenbeil: Jazz Guitarist
Opium, the latest CIMP (Creative Improvisational Music Project) release to be led by the New York-based guitarist, Bruce Eisenbeil, is a mesmerizing album.
The Opium quartet is anchored by an unusually dark-timbred horn combination consisting of David Taylor on bass trombone and Michael Attias on bass saxophone.
Opium is an album of contrasts, the most significant of which is that of the thin, needle-like sound of Eisenbeil's guitar and hearty roars of the Attias and Taylor horns.

 PIG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Several of his albums were originally released in Japan, where he enjoyed considerably more success than in the United States, but those albums were eventually released in the US.
His album and song titles tend to be witty, rife with alliteration ("Prayer Praise and Profit") or plays on the titles of popular works or phrases (The Swining / "Symphony for the Devil").
Watts has contributed his skills as a songwriter and vocalist to several KMFDM albums, including their first album Opium in 1984, and has a heavy presence on their 1995 album Nihil, which spawned their hit "Juke Joint Jezebel", a song that exemplifies Watts' musical style.

on their debut album marcy playground already have a well established sound.
the album even looks at the historical events surrounding the trade of opium from east to west in “poppies.” other songs deal with dark subject matter, such as “one more suicide,” “vampires of new york,” and “saint joe on the school bus.”
the album works well in the background, where you can occasionally sing along, but where you don’t focus on the timbres.

 H Y P N O S - Reviews
The album concludes with "Undercurrent in Castevoli" and this cut features still more field recordings of water sounds (and by now you should realize that unless you find the sound of water flowing and dripping at least somewhat appealing, you won't enjoy this disc).
The majority of this album, however, is pure beatless ambience, with highlight tracks like "Awaken Spirits" and "Floating Energies" consisting of multi-layered drones and field recordings (crickets, water, and various other environmental soundscapes), creating a contemplative listening space.
Opium doesn't list the source of his recordings, but it is noted that Alio Die's are from wide-ranging, exotic locales such as Thailand, Koh Pee Pee (this must be an answer to a trivia question somewhere), and Lunigiana, Italy.

 Opium
Opium is a narcotic drug, which is obtained from the unripe seed pods of the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum).
To harvest opium, the skin of the ripening pods is scored by a sharp blade.
Opium is highly physically addictive and its pharmacological action occurs because it binds to endorphin receptors in the brain.

In early 1989, the next album, UAIOE, in which the band line-up consisted of two members that would leave after the album and disappear so that when Sascha was asked years later if he knew there whereabouts and what they were up to, he had to say he had no idea.
The album was released in 1992, and was their best to date, and this was accompanied by two successful tours in the summer and fall of the year.
The next album was recorded during 1997 and was at first done in a somewhat erratic fashion via mail, e-mail and FedEx prior to the entire band going into the studio together in Seattle to complete it.

 O & A CD Review: Opium Jukebox   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Opium Jukebox studied each note of popular songs and then carefully and cleverly deconstructed them by rewriting their parts for eclectic instruments such as the vibes, bamboo horns, sitars, dijeridus, shakuhachis, sarods and violins.
Most of the artists picked by Opium Jukebox are pioneers in the electronic dance scene, minus Janes Addiction and Nirvana.
Even though Martin Atkins comes off like the class clown — minus the band’s name and album title — this is a serious attempt at experimenting with defining music and giving it a new level of importance.

I love this album, my favorite of the whole slopknot history, i only don't like Welcome, for the rest á few average songs (virus of life, three nill) and the rest are very good with some outstanding songs (opium of the people, vermillion, the nameless).
Opium of the people stands out for me, I like the hammer-ons and pull offs or tap soloing, whatever that is at the start.

 Audio Reviews: O
Opium Taylor play a form of rock that I don't think I can describe or make a colorful analogy to.
The first song "Sticks to the Skin" is a masterpiece, having this great trickling guitar sound that's sharp and clean, hooking you in and leading you up to the next jumpy song, "Let Me Breathe." It sounds like kinda like the first VERBAL ASSAULT record with a kick in the pants.
In fact, this for the most part is a free jazz album for the wee hours of the morning, when you're extremely tired and want to milk just a little more out of the day, but would simply be annoyed by something "avant-garde".

The album includes quite a few new tracks, but old favourites such as "Opium of The People" are used to great effect.
A problem that the band seem to have faced with this album (and indeed a lot of bands this year) is that they don't seem to be sure what to put on the album and what to leave off.
The album simply doesn't measure up to the bands EPs and from reports of the band's live shows, it doesn't measure up to those either.

After their album Adios, Sascha decided that the band was too far from its original incantation to really be called KMFDM anymore, so he and Tim became MDFMK (which isn't an acronym for anything).
This album came very close to getting a ten, but there are a couple of songs that are a little long, and "Hole" is only pretty good.
This is a rarity - a farewell album that doesn't suck at all.

Almost Religious' is a short - religious - instrumental introduction for one of the highlights of the album, 'Opium', which was the single for Irreligious.
I mean, this album has that insane gothic atmosphere and in the same time it has powerful melodies with both angelic and death lines.
While you are totally caught by the spirit of the album, 'A Poisoned Gift' pushes again the limits of perversion and it's not the woman screaming at the beginning of the song that would help you to feel safer.

After recording that last bass track for "La Semana" yesterday morning, Jon and I listened to a handful of songs we had recorded last year for a new Christmas album - listen to the December 2003 download for example.
Most songs we have recorded so far are pretty slow and have a lot of beautiful textures, which reminds us more of the "Opium" album, than of the more acoustic and pure "Christmas + Santa Fe" or the upbeat "Poets + Angels".
See, that's why I don't listen to a new album much after it is released....before its release I have already listened to to the music a million times.
