Album Description

This limited edition collection isn't a singles comp per se. These songs, collected over a six-year period, range from limited edition singles to web-only downloads, and from semi-attainable to gimme-a-break-how-was-I-supposed-to-find-that? The DVD contains tour footage, live performances, and a collection of videos, including the eye-popping clips for "In This City" and "Daughter In The House Of Fools".

Cohesive shambles.......2006-02-07

Really quite an astonishing array of styles, with songs that contain their own interludes. Everything from dance-party fuel (Knock That Door, Tilt You Up) to tongue-in-cheek Magnetic Fields-isms (Adalania, Grain of Assault) to indelible mixtures that defy easy classification. Ultimately rewarding in its rocktronic uber-eclecticism.

Synchronistic, Witty, and Strange.......2005-07-26

"Excuse me Mister Mister can you Spare some more Resistors"
This is a lyrical line that I found amusing about the album.

Still trying to figure out what "exactly" they are saying and/or trying to say...

Not so sure about the "Timeing" of this album release date.
It was either a true temporal anomoly, or some Lame-asses attempt and haveing some "cheap" fun...or even more interesting, Both!

For me finding this album was like running into your best friend that you have not seen in 10 years in a different city in a different country, both of which you have never been to before and just happend to travel there because you randomly won a contest for a vacation that you didn't even enter for.

Oh yeah, and "The Left Brain...The Right Hand."

Enon Marbles and Exploded Evidence a good album.......2005-03-21

Enon
Lost Marbles and Exploded Evidence , good album

New York synth anti-pop group tidies up its archives, but not too tidily

From electro shuffles to punk vamps, this compilation of singles and other odd tracks is something of a jumble, which is exactly how the New York combo likes it. Originally just singer-guitarist-synthist John Schmersal, Enon have evolved into a smart, unpredictable trio, featuring Toko Yasuda's lovely coo. Recorded between 1998 and 2004, these 16 tunes are all short and mostly machine-generated, but range widely in mood and timbre. Yasuda harmonizes with herself atop the chiming riffs and fuzz-bass pulses of "Knock That Door," while Schmersal rants over harsh bleeps and heavy thumps on "Marbles Explode." This package (which includes a DVD) demonstrates that Enon enjoy both melody and noise but savor unpredictability most of all.

Two different bands.......2005-03-15

John Schmersal has awesome ideas and the songs here are just as brilliant as ever. This sounds as cohesive as any of Enon's other releases, which really doesn't say much, but points out one of the strengths of this band- variety is a bonus when each of the distinct styles is comparably satisfying. Some of the songs here hark back to when Rick Lee and Steve Calhoun were in the band, while others sound quite recent. There's a lot of good music here if you can get past Toko's distinctive squeaky little-girl voice which, it must be said, can be a bit annoying sometimes- especially following tracks featuring Schmersal's somewhat subdued and laid-back vocals which are more in the vein of Stephen Merritt. This collection really underscores the sense that there are two Enons- one with Schmersal's uniquely flamboyant and venturesome, yet usually dead-on pop treasures, and one with Toko Yasuda's basic and more accessible beat-driven contemporary pop.

Interesting mix of genres.......2005-03-09

It starts out with a playful soft nasal girly voice and bass in the background to tap your boots to. Album shifts into a more electronic sound as it progresses into the second track, which reminds me of Groove Armada a bit. #3 is really upbeat, #4 bit darker. #6 reminds me of circus music. #9 is more of a pretty piano & violin combination. #16 blues oriented.

The album is a bit unorganized, like they compiled songs they already had recorded earlier.

Tracks you should pay attention to are #2, #4 & #6.
