Music : Anotomica: The String Quartet Tribute to Tool

Used Price: $13.97

I first learned about classical tribute albums for metal bands when I heard about the Estonian group Rondellus and bought their magnificent tribute to Black Sabbath, called Sabbatum.

Sabbatum was such a brilliant album that, when I heard about Anotomica, I listened to it and bought the album. Bear in mind, I know nothing of Tool's music. But I do know classical music, and I love this album. The renditions of the Tool songs sound fantastic to me. The music is well-played, and I love feeling the textures of the music and the interweaving of the instrument voices.

The only reason I don't give this album five stars is because of the song "Rampant" on the second CD. It is total crap and not at all enjoyable to listen to if you like classical music; it is disharmonious ... Read More

I don't get it: this recording really fell under the radar, for some mysterious reasons, and yet the music it contains is one of the most intriguing I have heard in a long time.
Gann's compositions are complex and enchanting, one aspect reinforcing the other.
On Reading Emerson is in my opinion a model for a perfect composition, as it possesses every element that a perfect composition should possess: rich and multi-layered musical materials and impeccable sense of form.
Despite the piece includes a number of quotes (from Ives, and even one from Busoni's glorious Fantasia Contrappuntistica!), it is incredibly cohesive. I think that opening cell serves rather well as generative and unifying element, here. I already heard this piece twice, performed live by Sarah Cahill, and I cannot ... Read More

- especially the Walzt-Gavottte is playfull and summes of live and fun - a bit Childrens Corner here. But some of the pieces are very etniclike and can be foreign to listen to. Though - it sounds interesting.

At first, i was hesitant on how i was going to enjoy this cd, but before i knew it, i was singing all the words along..and opera-style at that!
This is a really great cd, it's so beautiful, and delicate, you can feel every ounce of passion, the strings are amazing!
I highly recommend this cd, especially if you are a big fan of the band.
