THE KNIFE
shaken-up versions
BRILLE
a mini album of classic Knife tracks reworked especially for the band’s 2014 North American leg of their 'Shaking The Habitual' Tour which serves to reminds us of what a formidable, inspiring & rejuvenating force the avant-garde swedes can be.
this collection allows you to recreate the power of a live show from the knife (albeit without the dancers & costumes - unless of course you've gone to some real effort!) & although it cannot be as mesmerising as seeing the whole show before your eyes, this collection provides a fine snapshot of the live experience. "often challenging, at times a little frustrating, but at its core a thrilling body of work. Like most live albums, the material captured on 'Shaken-Up Versions' loses something when taken offstage....Fortunately, these remixes don’t need context...the reworks rarely smack of obviousness" 7.3/10 - pitchfork.
