Customer Reviews Legeandary Pink Dots - '9 Lives To Wonder' (Soleilmoon) More mellow and laid back than their more recent titles, but still very decent. Good mid-'90's Legendary Pink Dots release. Best described as neo-psychedelic. Seen them play small clubs twice now. You can never tell what 'deep album tracks' they just might play on any given U. S. tour. Tracks here I was somewhat impressed the most with were "Madame Guillotine", the hypnotic "Oasis Malade", the ten-minute "Nine Shades To The Circle" and "Terra Firma Welcome". Always good to check out one of many, {many} LPD discs that you haven't heard yet. Another stellar release... On this very special occasion Cevin Key of Skinny Puppy is the Pink Dots special guest. Can't go wrong with LPD, 9 Lives To Wonder" was created with The Silver Man on keyboards and exotic divices, Ryan Moore on bass and drums, Martijn de Kleer handling guitar and tympani, Niels van Hoornblower lives up to his surname and of course The Prophet Qa'Spel delivering the lyrics and playing keyboards and destroyed lyre. AVAILABLE AT SOLEILMOON records website and Strange Fortune's website for $12. 00, don't pay more than this from someone who doesn't know or care about the music. $20. 00 used? what a rip off!. Classic LPD space-rock. Soft, melodic, and very spacy, this would be a great disc to get introduced the dots, especially if you're into the earlier works of pink floyd. This album is a particularily good "summary work" of the legendary pink dots' style before they moved onto their present style. If you're familiar with the Dots' other stuff, this is along similar lines as The Maria Dimension and The Shadow Weaver part one. .
