 Neil Young: Le Noise 180 Gram Vinyl
Le Noise (180 Gram LP)

This summer, when I saw Neil Young on his Twisted Road solo tour, and he played eight new songs--six of which would make it onto his latest offering, I didn't realize that the ones he played on his electric guitar would ultimately prove the most compelling. I've always had a preference for the acoustic side of Neil Young, so when he interspersed these new unaccompanied electric guitar-based songs through his show, they seemed an interesting expression--but nothing I thought would have any real lasting impact.
The Music
Young's new album, Le Noise, recorded and produced by oft-U2 collaborator, Daniel Lanois, at his home in the Silverlake section of Los Angeles, was done without the use of any accompaniment or band, and definitely makes an impact--and may very well come to be seen as one of the great achievements of his later career. Le Noise, starts off with Walk With Me--one of the album's strongest songs. Walk With Me, lyrically reads as a love song, but comes off as a powerful anthem--and could prove to be a new signature song for Young--he has already used in as an encore on his latest tour. The next two songs on side one--Sign of Love, and Someone's Going to Rescue You, continue along the same lines--with Lanois' use of delays, echo, and other effects bringing about a swirling, powerful sound that boasts big bass notes in addition to the ringing upper octaves.
The seeds of a developing mythology surrounding the recording of the album have already been planted and are likely to continue to grow--from reports that the recording was all completed during a full moon at Young's request, to the lack of any overdubs, to Lanois' development of a special stereo guitar, to the multitude of effects used--and so on and so on . . .  The first side ends with an acoustic song, Love and War, which I suspect favors the vinyl LP format--as it breaks up the momentum created by the first three electric numbers and flows better followed by the break necessary in changing album sides--rather than by directly leading into another electric song.  Like the first, side two contains three electric and one acoustic song--and fans will argue over which songs they like best--but, The Hitchhiker, a haunting autobiographical narrative of drug use and self-destruction, is destined to become a classic.

***************************************************************************************
ABSOLUTE SOUND

Neil Young has long had a talent for writing lyrics that are elusive yet compelling. Although many of the lines in “Tell Me Why” from After the Gold Rush elude me, that doesn’t make it less powerful—and when he sings “I am lonely but you can free me/All in the way that you smile” the sudden clarity has all the more impact. Lyrically his new release, Le Noise, is so straightforward it may catch you off guard. This is a time for reckoning, for looking back without flinching, for admitting mistakes and for hanging on to what’s left. With music this personal, it makes sense that Neil recorded his first studio album that’s completely solo: it’s just him and a guitar.

Le Noise isn’t, however, a “return to his folk roots”—far from it, actually. With the exception of two cuts Neil uses an electric guitar, and by the time he’s run through “Walk With Me,” “Sign of Love,” and “Someone’s Gonna Rescue You,” it’s clear he wants to make a lot of (le) noise. Never mind that these opening songs are about love and relationships and the lyrics often unabashedly romantic; this is a rock and roll album with a huge, symphonic sound, all from one guitar and one voice. Daniel Lanois, who’s worked with U2, Bob Dylan, and Peter Gabriel, produced the record, and at times Neil sounds like he’s not in Lanois’ studio but in a coliseum. On these and the other electric songs Neil’s attack and the layered and expansive sound of his guitar are compelling—especially impressive on the 180-gram vinyl version of Le Noise. The vocals are a different matter, however. The heavy reverb and delay often seem excessive. They also seem like a distraction to Neil, who sometimes seems overly seduced by the wall of sound he and Lanois create.

There are two acoustic guitar cuts on the record. “Peaceful Valley Boulevard” casts a dark eye on America’s past and future— but the melody and the guitar playing are gorgeous. On this cut, though, the vocal treatment seems especially inappropriate. It’s one thing to electronically alter the vocals over an electric backdrop, but why over an acoustic one? The vocals sound more natural on the other acoustic track, the Spanish-tinged “Love and War,” one of the highlights of the record. Again the guitar work is memorable, with a warm sound that shines on vinyl.

The trippy vocal treatment is most effective on a detailed account of Neil’s drug use over the years. The strongest cut on the album, “The Hitchhiker,” may also be the most depressing—and if the worst is over, anxiety remains: “Many years have come and gone like friends and enemies/I tried to leave my past behind but it’s catching up with me/I don’t know how I’m standing here, living in my life/I’m thankful for my children, and my faithful wife.” Although I have issues with the sound, that sense of honesty and vulnerability helps make Le Noise a return to form for a major if inconsistent artist. ......

Rezension:

Ein solches Album gibt es tatsächlich noch nicht in Youngs langer Diskographie. Dies ist sozusagen die Verschmelzung seiner beiden Extreme, der lauten Crazy Horse-Rock-LPs und der akustischen Singer/Songwriter-Alben: Solo, aber laut! Young begleitet sich hier auf der Les Paul mit bis zum Anschlag aufgedrehtem Verzerrer, von Daniel Lanois großartig in Szene gesetzt, und schleudert ein Garagenrock-Riff nach dem anderen raus (zwei akustische Ausnahmen gibt es allerdings). Das klingt keineswegs wie "Dead Man", denn da war die Gitarre alleine, hier kontrastiert sie zu Youngs Stimme, die überwiegend klingt, als würde er zu zarten Akustik-Arrangements singen. Ein erstaunlicher Effekt, der in jedem Song von neuem verblüfft. Es ist (auch wenn's mal wieder ein teurer Spaß ist) begrüßenswert, daß es dieses Album nur als hervorragend gemasterte audiophile Ausgabe gibt: Der atemberaubende Klang muß dazugehören (wie eine gewisse Mindestlautstärke, schicken Sie die Nachbarn ins Kino), bei keiner Neil Young-LP ist der Sound so wesentlich wie hier. Man hatte es nicht unbedingt erwartet, aber: Das hier ist seit ziemlich langer Zeit wieder ein echtes Hauptwerk, das nicht nur Fans und Komplettisten brauchen. Lanois sei Dank! (2010)
****************************************************************************************************
Wenn man die Musiklandschaft der letzten 50 Jahre betrachtet, kommt man an einer Person nicht vorbei: Der Alt-Meister Neil Young zählt zu den Koryphäen der Rockszene. Bei „Le Noise“ hat er sich wieder einmal auf seinen Instinkt verlassen und ein Album auf den Markt gebracht, das durch den Einsatz von Gitarren und seiner Stimme überzeugt. Ohne Band, ohne Overdubs, nur mit Stimme, Gitarre und reichlich Einsatz von Verzerrern zelebriert Young auf „Le Noise“ acht eigene Stücke.
Erweitert wurde der Sound durch Geräusche und Loops, für die Produzent Daniel Lanois verantwortlich war. Neben geschrammelten Akkorden im Opener „Walk With Me“ überzeugt „Someones Gonna Rescue You“ mit einem facettenreichen Gitarrenspiel im Crazy Horse-Rock-Stil. Hervorzuheben ist die Liebeserklärung „Sign Of Love“ an seine Frau Pegi, die Young nun schon seit 32 Jahren begleitet. Highlight ist das entschlackte „Love And War“, eine tolle, aber traurige Akustik-Ballade im Harverst-Stil. Neil Young pur!
Wie die früheren Classic Records-Alben von Neil Young wurde auch diese LP von Chris Bellman bei Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, LA, gemastert. Dickes Klappcover mit Prägeschrift, Beiblatt mit Songtexten.
**************************************************************************************************
Das Album umfasst acht Tracks und wurde von Young in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Musiker, Songwriter und Produzenten Daniel Lanois (u. a. U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Brian Eno, Willie Nelson) aufgenommen. Die Wege von Young und Lanois kreuzten sich in der Vergangenheit bereits mehrfach, unter anderem spielte Lanois bei Youngs Bridge School Benefizkonzert, für "Le Noise" taten sie sich erstmals für eine gemeinsame Arbeit zusammen.
Das Album wurde in Lanois' Haus in Silverlake / Los Angeles aufgenommen, am Ende kam ein Album heraus, das ebenso intensiv wie reduziert auf das Wesentliche ist: Young an der akustischen und elektrischen Gitarre, Lanois mit einigen klanglichen Ergänzungen - "Le Noise" kommt komplett ohne Band und Overdubs aus. Schlicht "ein Mann auf einem Hocker und ich, der einen ordentlichen Job beim Aufnehmen zu machen hatte", wie Lanois es formuliert.
Seinen Angaben zufolge funktionierte die Zusammenarbeit auch ansonsten perfekt: "Neil war sehr offen für die Klänge, die wir ihm präsentieren. Er kam zur Tür herein, und ich gab ihm eine Akustik-Gitarre in die Hände - eine, mit der ich zuvor gearbeitet hatte, um einen neue Sound zu kreieren", so Lanois. "Ich wollte, dass er versteht, dass ich Jahre damit verbracht hatte, mich diesen Klängen zu widmen, und ich wollte ihm etwas geben, das er nie zuvor gehört hatte. Er nahm das Instrument, das alles hatte - einen akustischen Sound, Electronica, Bass-Sounds - und er wusste sofort, dass wir damit die Akustrik-Gitarre auf einn neues Level bringen würden. Es ist nicht einfach, am Ende von 50 Jahren Rock and Roll mit einem neuen Sound um die Ecke zu kommen, aber ich denke, es ist uns gelungen." (warnermusic. de)

"Despite being nearly killed in a motorcycle accident recently, our man Daniel Lanois completed his obligations on the new Neil Young record, and today the details of the record were announced...Lanois recently told CBC that “it’s rocking. And he’s really come in with the songs, they’re terrific. I dare say it might be some of his best work in some time. We’ve really hit the motherlode.” (nationalpost. com)

Rezensionen
- "Planet of sound: (endlich) wieder ein beeindruckendes Werk vom Altmeister der zornigen Gitarre. Intim und zartfühlend, laut und grollend." (motor. de)
- "Schlichte, aber überaus präzise lyrische Gesten der Gitarre wechseln auf „Le Noise“ in schneller Folge mit wildschäumenden Soli und sich zähflüssig auftürmenden Akkordwellen. Schwere Kost, aber großartige Songs. Ein dunkles Meisterwerk der Gitarrenkunst." (nachrichten. at)
- "Mehr nach Underground klang dieses Jahr noch kein Rockalbum. Nicht schlecht für einen 65-jährigen Haudegen und seinen 59-jährigen Sekundanten." (kulturnews. de)
- steckt voller kleiner schräger Zustände, die sich bei jedem Hören auf andere Weise aus dem Soundkosmos herausschälen. Neil Young und Daniel Lanois haben ein stets in Bewegung bleibendes Soundmonster erschaffen, das man auf immer neue Art entdecken kann. Und keine Angst, es beißt nicht, es will nur spielen!" (computerbild. de)
- "Eine harte, raue, brachiale und verzerrte Kost hat Young hier aufgetischt, dessen Exzesse von dem Musiker, Songwriter und Produzenten Daniel Lanois mit allerlei Soundeffekten zurückhaltend verdichtet werden. Was hat dieser Veteran noch für eine Energie und Freude an der Entdeckung neuer Welten. Und über diesem Noise-Abgrund tänzelt Youngs helle Stimme als Kontrastprogramm." (focus. de)
- "Das Resultat dieser unerwarteten Zusammenarbeit, von Neil Young und Produzenten Daniel Lanois, klingt intensiv und fesselnd. Wer eine Musikanlage mit genügend Power (oder wesentlich günstiger: einen guten Kopfhörer) hat, der sollte - nomen est omen - "Le Noise" unbedingt mit der für die Trommelfell maximal erträglichen Lautstärke hören - es lohnt sich!" (Good Times, 12 / 2010 - 01 / 2011)
- "Endllch machen die Freigeister Neil Young und Daniel Lanois, der einst U2 ihren typischen Sound verpasste, gemeinsame Sache!" (www. audio. de, 11 / 2010)
- "Bitte unvoreingenommen hören und dann staunen!" (stereoplay, 11 / 2010)
- "Er befand sich ganz allein im Aufnahmeraum, und doch klingt Neil Youngs jüngstes Album dank Daniel Lanois voluminös und raumfüllend wie eine Bandproduktion." (stereo, 12 / 2010)
