    More of the same

    Although this album contains beautiful songs such as The Unfolding, I miss Brendan Perry's contribution. Lisa Gerrard has a magnificent voice, but this album misses the musical variation that was so typical for Dead Can Dance.

    Still timeless and ecclectic...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 17, 1999

    From the hard-hitting dynamics of 'Tempest' to the haunting melody and loping rhythmic drone of 'The Human Game' to the somewhat playful lilt of 'Nadir' Lisa proves that is still the premier female Musician in the world. And I deliberately use the w...ord 'Musician' rather than 'vocalist' for her artistic talents, as we all know, go far beyond the scope of her ethereally beautiful voice. I must admit that I was tempted to give this album a less-than-perfect rating due in part to the fact that I'm still somewhat stung with disappointment at the recent breakup of Dead Can Dance, and partly because not all the tracks from this album grabbed the same as I've become accustomed to her efforts with long-time partner Brendan Perry. However, I came to the conclusion that the masterful percussive arrangements of Pieter Bourke were more than sufficient to make up for the lack of song-writing contributions of Perry. I have to say that 'Duality' is a marked improvement over 'The Mirror Pool', which is not to say that I dislike her first album. Simply, I find the caliber of the songs and pieces on this album to be that much better on this most recent release. 'The Human Game' became one of my favorite all-time songs the first time I listened to it (which is quite unusual for me: it usually takes some time for a song to grow on me that much). At any rate, 'Duality' is a must-have for anyone who considers themselves a true music-lover, and for anyone who wishes to explore alternatives to the monotony of modern popular music. Keep up the great work Lisa! We all hope to hear you in the studio again Soon.DSL Read more Less
