Pure

Product Information

While both "Sacrifice" and "Exile" are good albums that helped bring Gary some long awaited credibility "pure" is the album that it all came together.

But this has so much pure Numan DNA in its tracks that simply makes clear how organic the progression from Numan’s early electronica through NIN’s industrial sound to reach this CD actually is. In the year of the millennium 2000, the British cult musician released his fourteenth studio album 'Pure', which, with its mix of gloomy doomsday sounds and hard guitar staccato, finds its roots in the genres of industrial and gothic rock.

Filled with pumping beats and guitars that sound like straight from a machine, Pure is an intense musical journey from start to finish, drfting into the Industrial Rock of Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson. A un degré moindre, Gary Numan amorce un virage complet et revient à un son, certes électronique mais le message est clair , les années 2000 seront gothiques. But unlike almost all of those releases, this has aged very well and is all the stronger for being viewed as an antecedent of Savage and Intruder.

In the year of the millennium 2000, the British cult musician Gary Numan released his 14th studio album Pure, which, with its mix of gloomy doomsday sounds and hard guitar staccato, finds it roots in the genres of industrial and gothic rock. The songs are exellent - some of the lyrics are searing, and combined with a much more 'heavy' style of music, the results are awesome - you can feel the rage and the pain that the lyrics project. En bon stratège qu'il est , Gary Numan a senti le vent tourner à la fin des années 90 ; la ringardisation du funk grotesque tendance fm pour radio américaines vers un son brutal et ténébreux, dont le gourou était un certain Marylin Manson, qui allait bientôt fédérer autour de lui des hordes de fans amateurs de sentations fortes.

This album is fabulous listened to in the dark it really is very atmospheric and I can't recommend it highly enough. Filled with pumping beats and guitars that sound like straight from a machine, “Pure” is an intense musical journey from start to finish. A se procurer sans hésitation pour compléter votre collection et si vous n'avez pas la version CD, la question ne se pose même pas ! This album is absolutely brilliant from start to finish, this is Gary Numan at the very top of his game. Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description.

Throbbing synths, bass and drums with heavy guitar flourishes all mixed with Gary's voice in fine form. In the year of the millennium 2000, the British cult musician released his fourteenth studio album Pure , which, with its mix of gloomy doomsday sounds and hard guitar staccato, finds it roots in the genres of industrial and gothic rock.

This album is a dark and brooding as anything by the great goth bands of the 80's - it's also chillingly beautiful with some great melodies.
