 Voyager Reviews
To get in the right mood for this album, one would have to spend an entire weekend swapping Star Trek bubblegum cards and Out Of Body experiences with the likes of William Orbit, Mick Fleetwood and David Icke, pausing only occasionally to sacrifice a Cyber-virgin or re-light the Yin-Yang candle.
JUST AS the misogyny on the 'Hippopotomomus' album came as no rude surprise (ugly men get their hatred of women along with their milk teeth and, let's face it, Momus makes Nosferatu look like a Chippendale) so 'Voyager', is about as technologically exciting as the inner workings of a waffle-maker.
'Voyager' is awash with luxuriant synths and awe-inspiring vistas, on a trajectory between St Etienne, PM Dawn and The Orb.

 Amazon.com: Music: For Your Pleasure [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED]
Some people carp about the slow, lengthy instrumental portions which take up "The Bogus Man" and "For Your Pleasure" but the album wouldn't be the same without them; these two exquisite examples of aural candy are the mystical yin to the yang of the first side.
If your experience of Bryan Ferry is the clean sheen of albums like Avalon, then "For Your Pleasure" may not be where you want to go.
Although lightened with some genuinely great pop songs, the overall feel of the album is defined by the brooding grind of deliciously chilling songs such as "The Bogus Man" that tap a futuristic goth vein that Roxy Music never really went close to again.

 DCist: Veruca Salt at Jaxx
The fact is that Gordon and Post were the yin and yang of the band, two opposite sides of a coin whose different voices, personalities, and writing styles created Veruca Salt's particular sound and persona.
In 2003, Veruca Salt released an EP entitled "Officially Dead." Recorded five years after band co-founder Nina Gordon had left the band and three years after Veruca Salt's only post-Gordon album, 2000's "Resolver," the recording's name was an accurate assessment of the band's unfortunate fate.
No less, the album produced three singles, "Volcano Girls," "Shutterbug," and "Benjamin." Following a year-long tour in support of the album, Gordon eventually picked up and left the band, citing differences with Post over the band's direction.

 Tommy Bolin Archives
These two songs act as a sort of yin and yang; both are based around Tom Stephenson’s majestic piano, and fit Jeff Cook’s vocal range perfectly; both contain breakout Bolin solos; but while the first is a song of heartbreak and loss, the latter is one of defiance.
It is an album that was ahead of its time in 1972 whose time has at last come in 1999.
Articles and interviews mentioned that he was in the band Energy, but that they had never released any albums before breaking up.

 RARB Review of Company B - Almost Legal
Almost Legal is an album of yin and yang; moments of goodness that linger in the mind are eventually, inevitably erased by moments of badness.
It's also interesting to hear an album that hearkens back to the early '90s in terms of recording techniques, you get the impression that they crowded around a couple of microphones and sang until they heard a take they liked (ah the memories).
, an album commemorating the group's 20 years of existence, is an homage to all that was great and damning about the pioneering days of contemporary collegiate a cappella (that would be 1989-92).

 RollingStone.com: Rock Steady : No Doubt : Review
On Rock Steady, No Doubt get their yin and yang in balance, and after the finely wrought turmoil of Return of Saturn, it sounds like a relief.
But while the album was heartfelt and subtle, it was a little overcooked.

 True blue
Amy Ray and Emily Saliers are the yin and yang of the Indigo Girls.
The new album's title track, "Become You," dances with the same reflective, foot tapping exuberance as "Closer to Fine." Ray provides the attitude for the lead vocals and Saliers' harmonies flutter on this catchy track that examines racism in the South.
The album may be simple and classic for the Indigo Girls, but it's anything but stale or standard musical fare.

 Of Montreal The Sunlandic Twins Album Review - SoundsXP
The album is full of yin and yang.
Don’t wait for posterity’s reassurance; this is one of the great albums of this and many a year.
After 10 albums, Kevin Barnes still has plenty to say and, on the evidence of ‘Sunlandic Twins’, plenty worth hearing.

 USA v. Tavares Ronald M.
Most damning are Tavares's recorded statements that he had a large supply of LSD and that he had just received a supply of LSD doses in the yin-yang design (the design of the 8,440 doses found in the record album cover) that had been produced by the thousand.
They discovered 141 doses of LSD configured in a "bug design" in Tavares's bedroom and 8,440 doses in a yin-yang design hidden in a record album cover in the living room.
As the government points out, however, Tavares's girlfriend Helou effectively made this point for him by testifying that she had not previously seen record albums or a record player in his apartment.

 AMZ - July, 2001 - Cappadonna
Based on Yin and Yang, the Chinese characters that symbolize nature’s mutually dependent opposites, Cappadonna’s album was meant to discuss “different things...a lot of love, a lot of hate.“ However, there is no real backbone that holds the songs together and the lyrics of the album’s first half often seem like senseless babble.
In Cappadonna’s sophomore release “The Yin and the Yang,” the Wu-Tang Clan member notes that he is “just coming to represent.” But with nine of the eleven tracks featuring more experienced rappers like Killah Priest, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Da Brat, and Jermaine Dupri, Cappadonna himself is often outdone in nearly every song.
The end product, therefore, is a weak “solo” album, and is definitely a step down from the first.

 CHARLES BRONSON VS GOD: Liars.
Here, we have an album built on the idea of contrasts, the forementioned reviewers invocation of yin/yang, the band's discussion of the characters "Drum" and "Mt. Heart Attack," but its all pretty silly.
Harmonium Music (another website I'm not familiar with) gave the album 5 stars and says "If you will permit me to turn into an NME journalist for a moment, I’d have to say that even in these early winter months, Drum’s Not Dead is a serious contender for album of the year.
Sonically, we're in the same basic territory of They Were Wrong, but that album, built on subtle, transitional, elongated contrasts, transported the listener to witch hunt land.

 Proof :: Searching for Jerry Garcia :: Iron Fist Records
While Bizarre's album may get more mainstream exposure, this reviewer humbly recommends getting both to get the full yin and yang of the D12 experience, a group of talented rappers who are finally starting to emerge from Marshall Mathers' long shadow.
For that other 1.7%, the artwork adorning the cover of this D12 rapper's album should be a hint.

After 1991's Internal Exile and the 1993 covers album Songs from the Mirror, he moved from EMI to Dick Bros. The Acoustic Session CD appeared in 1994, and one year later Fish released a double album (released separately), Yin and Yang.
His debut solo album, Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors, appeared one year later and continued the theatrical flair of Marillion's quasi-concept albums.
Born April 25, 1958, in Edinburgh, Scotland, Derek William Dick (aka Fish) was the dramatic lead vocalist for prog rock band Marillion until beginning a solo career in 1988.

 Victor Wooten
Anyone who had the sense to pick up Victor Wooten's 1999 album 'Yin Yang' will recognize the sound of his daughters voice on the record.
Victor is known, aside from his incredible playing, as a even tempered sort of person that demands a lot of himself.
Later in the same double album, Victor used a now slightly older Kayla's voice samples once more and had her count the song in, accenting stops and changes throughout the tune.

 December 30, 2002 Des Moines Register Top 10 CDs of 2002
These bands are his yin and yang, and to consider one without the other would be a mistake.
It's appropriate this Philadelphia band has kept a running tally of its songs since its debut album, because its hip-hop has evolved more organically and impressively than just about any other rhyme-spitting, beat-thumping crew to come along in the last decade.
To embarass itself on its 25th anniversary, the slick Los Angeles pop band returns with a tin ear, no brains and too much courage to manhandle an album full of misguided cover songs: Bob Marley's "Could You Be Loved," Steely Dan's "Bodhisattva," Stevie Wonder's "Livin' for the City" and too much more horror.

 Super Furry Animals - Phantom Phorce review theStereoEffect.com
But now, back from a brief respite, they hand over Phantom Phorce - the yin to Phantom Power’s yang — a remixed album, calling upon a long list of friends to rework the band’s most intimate album.
The Super Furry Animals have constantly delivered perfectly weird albums, pop songs, rock songs, a spectrum of ideas, and lest we forget — an album entirely in Welsh, so it was only a matter of time before they would present something to usurp the restlessness after Phantom Power.
Phantom Phorce won’t be the follow-up that fans were hoping for, but it makes that silver lining sparkle a little bit more.
