BEEQUEEN - Sandancing - CD
imprec177 - CD - $11.99 
After the by now usual gap of some two years, Beequeen is
ready to present their latest album, further maturing their sound from 'The Bodyshop' (also on Important Records). More song based, this album features now vocals by Olga Wallis solely (with some backing by Freek Kinkelaar). Well rounded popsongs in some places, but Beequeen never forget to put in some strange element, without leaping in the dark alley of pointless experiment. Orchestral in 'The Illogical Song', collage like in 'The Edie Three Step' or a simple rhythmmachine in
'The Honeythief'. Beequeen does all, and with great care and
seemingly ease.
This album features also the help of Barry Gray, former (and first) guitarist of The Legendary Pink Dots, and would not have been the album that is without the invalueable productional
skills of Erik Drost.

Good things come slow, and this is certainly the case for
Beequeen. Unlike so many others, who spit out albums every
week, the Beequeen takes a slow course. It took Frans de Waard
and Freek Kinkelaar two years to complete the recordings for
The Bodyshop, the successor to their much-acclaimed CD Ownliness
from 2002. Not because of laziness, band fights or drug abuse,
but simply because the whole thing had to be good. Every single
second, every single instrument and every single sound has
been examined and re-examined until the boys were satisfied
with the results.
This is Beequeens most instrumented album to date including
beautiful female vocals and a cover of Nick Drake's Black
Dog |
