Ian North - Rape Of Orchids
Review by Dan Sumners
The album "Rape of Orchids" by Ian North is a masterpiece of post-punk and new wave music. Released in 1980, this album is a perfect example of the innovative and experimental sound that was emerging in the underground music scene of the time.
The album features a range of sounds and influences, including punk, new wave, electronic, and even classical music. The songs are characterized by their intricate arrangements, catchy melodies, and thought-provoking lyrics.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Man Who Would Be King," which features a driving rhythm section, soaring guitars, and North's distinctive vocals. The song is a powerful commentary on the corrupting influence of power and the dangers of unchecked ambition.
Another standout track is "Judgement Day," a haunting ballad with a beautiful piano melody and poignant lyrics about the end of the world. The song is a perfect showcase for North's songwriting skills and his ability to create powerful emotional moments with his music.
