Customer Reviews:
not too tough..........2006-02-26
this album is really good for two reasons. 1) it is very noisy but it is not too tough. what i mean is that it is noisy and positive. 2) double cd...double your pleasure.
One of the better ones..........2004-08-06
Another Bower-related production, and one of the better ones, the ideas are not new but maybe sharpened a little bit, and though still it will recall the un/introduced listener to some other sofisticated noise items and artists it still has that unique, and in a way innovative sound that makes it typical Boweresque. Genuine simplicity is a good charactheristics I believe, and it's actually very hard to find, Sunroof succeeds in finding it - again - and does it beautifully and somewhat challenging...that's what makes this release a five star one.
sparkles and clangs and magic.......2003-01-13
like all ambient music, nothing ever really happens here. but the beautiful part about this is the noise. if you put it on and go to sleep to it, waking up to it is a most curious phenomenon, because the noises are no longer irritating. there is something very meditative about this. i dont have all of the matthew bower stuff, but as compared to pelt and vibracathedral orchestra, i like this best. at first listen i hated it, so don't say i didnt warn you. but there's so much to it that it's impossible to catch it all. the song titles describe the moods well. this music is not for everyone, but for those of you that want something unique to go to sleep to, i dont think you're going to find ambient guitar rattling like you'll find here. don't get me wrong, roy montgomery and stephen wray lobdell and all the drone rock stuff (bardo pond, flyind saucer attack, windy and carl) works nicely too, but since THINGS HAPPEN in that music (well most of the time), it begins to become a script you memorize. the beauty of this music is that it is placeless, nameless, motionless, and exists outside of time. there are longer samples on vhf's website if you need to hear more, but even thirty seconds should pique your curiosity
