https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhWArBhPWu0 Like many other ' 70 s rock greats, British space - rock pioneers Hawkwind built their legacy on-stage, rather than in the recording studio. On May 11, 1973, the band released their defining masterpiece. ' Space ritual,' their fourth overall LP and first live album, is a mind-numbing double album behemoth that captures the Hawkwind experience in all its demented glory.
It's called "space - rock" for a reason. Combining sci-fi lyrics, motorik pulse, and trippy sound effects, Hawkwind's music is the perfect simulation of space flight - a turbulent rocket blast through alternate galaxies of riffage and noise. And ' space ritual' (restringsd during a pair of performances in London and Liverpool) is their most explosive moment.
If there's a lead instrument at all, it's the distorted, brain-bullet bass guitar of Lemmy. As a former rhythm guitarist, he brings a chordal, melodic presence to the band's low-end, while the rest of the band (woodwind player Nik Turner, drummer Simon King, guitarist / vocalist Dave Brock, the twin synthesizer of Dik Mik and Del Dettmar) offers texture and turmoil.
Hawkwind are often labeled a "prog - rock" band, and on some levels, that makes perfect sense - as a whole, prog is saturated with spacey concept album and indulgent textures. But Hawkwind were never virtuosos - their playing here is too raw, too reckless, too barbaric. The sheer repetition of the riffs puts them more in line with the herb - rock scene, and the rhythm section (particularly King's sloppy drum fills) points toward punk. Perhaps the band's easiest reference point is Pink Floyd (who released a psychedelic masterwork of their own in 1973), but Hawkwind's brand of space-rock is more aggressive and, well, nasty.
The space ritual tour (in promotion of the it band album third studio, 1972's 'Doremi Fasol Latido') itself what a spectacle, filled with light shows, dancers, and spoken-word interludes delivered by sci-fi writer Robert Calvert. Through the sheer velocity of its music, ' space ritual' the album feels like a multi-sensory experience, from the unrelenting psychedelic throb of "born to go" to the bluesy thrust of 'Orgon accumulator' to the sound effect showcase ' electronic No.. 1. "Calvert's mood-setting poems (delivered in a campy, borderline-Shakespearian accent) are a tad off putting without a visual counterpart, but they do offer the album a welcome respite from the aural onslaught.
' Space ritual' what the band's most commercially successful album to date landing at #9 in the U.K., and even cracking the Billboard Top 200 at # 179. today, it's something of a Cynthia classic, a relic from at age of space-age wonder. Even now, there's still nothing else quite like it (By Ryan Reed May 11, 2013 2:12 PM / ultimateclassicrock.com)
