Ennio Morricone - Crime And Dissonance (2005)

Crime And Dissonance (2005)
A Masterful Psychedelic Album In 2 Parts

Even longtime lovers of Ennio Morricone's soundtrack work (from The Good, The Bad And The Ugly to The Thing to Once Upon A Time In America to dozens of lost spaghetti western scores) will marvel at singer Mike Patton's re-organization of some of Morricone's ultra bizarre themes, cues and madness for this 2CD release, Crime And Dissonance. This isn't a 'best of' in any way, shape or form. It's a gathering of the composer's lesser known, often psychedelic, certainly dissonant, punctuations to film soundtracks dating back to the 60s. John Zorn's liner notes detail Morricone's love of "the extreme and the experimental; psychedelic sitars, heavy breathing, screams, screeches and electric guitar feedback." A seamless compilation accenting the master's rugged audio experiments with cosmic choruses, untethered percussion and string arrangements molded from psychedelic clouds of smoke & mirrors. Only the hardcore will know many of these themes, but even they will be awed by this masterful re-sequencing. Listen to the Zappa-esqe "Corsa Sui Tetti" from 1969. Overall, a guaranteed treat for music lovers who don't want to know what's about to happen next.
