5 Star Rating  "Drugs & Hot summer afternoons."2003-12-05
- Reviewed By kbobbydunn
References of intoxication and blasting heat always come to mind indication with this particular recording. The album starts out in this sort of 'green world' sound -- as if one is opening his eyes to pure, blue skied, summer morning. SOTL incorporates these lovely, naturesque field recordings with this disc that develop that mood and feeling even more. Tracks like "Cantus II;In memory of Warren Wiltzie" float in this sort of "life-infested" field of memories and hot beating summer sun. This is the ideal album for a lazy summer afternoon. I enjoy listening to it right before a summer rain comes and washes out this unbeatable heat too. Excellent follow up to their "Music for Nitrous Oxide" record on Sedimental, this disc was re-released on Kranky in 1997.

The first Stars Of The Lid track I heard was Be Little With Me, and I was really enchanted by it, but after thoroughly exploring the bands catalog I haven't found anything that compares. The majority of their stuff offers just a cold ambient drone without any of the My Bloody Valentiney shimmer that makes Be Little With Me so great. So if you're like me, you'd probably be better served by picking up Accelera Deck's album Narcotic Beats.
 
4 Star Rating  "A solid introduction"2001-12-27
- Reviewed By thornfox
There are two Stars of the Lid albums anyone interested in the group should start with as a primer - Tired Sounds, or this one.

The title of the CD reflects the way the album plays out. The first two tracks, "The Better Angels of Our Nation" and "Cantus II," have a murky sound which implies gravity of the emotional kind. From "Jan. '69" onwards though the album develops a liberating psych-rock feel, which peaks in the rising guitars of "Be Little With Me."

The overall effect is supremely calming. It makes me wonder why we don't hear SotL on the radio alongside Enya. On so-called New Age programs, anyway.

I bought this on the advice of Portis,and what good advice it was.
Imagine the sounds of the creation of life on Earth,now slow the sounds down until one second becomes one hour,that's something like the sounds of this disc.
Imagine you are an alien visiting the earth.You travel inside a liquid bubble floating through this strange landscape,through air and water...each moment is so complicated and yet so simple.
Perhaps the universe is simply a cell within another universe and so on into infinity...and perhaps this is the sound of all the cells singing.

I'm a big fan of Stars of the Lid. I rank them up there with the likes of earlier Tetsu Inoue and the atmospheric side of Steve Roach. STOL produce some of the most chilled, consistently excellent ambient and drone I have ever heard.

Gravitational Pull reeks of drug induced summer afternoons, lazily shifting light tones and textures and incorporating very vague sounds. It is quite effective any time of day, as SOTL have obvious talent and this music serves as an excellent companion for bedtime or mid afternoons. As long as work is far far away and it's time for some relaxation or introspection.

Considered an EP in some places, Gravitational Pull is a solid 51 minutes, and there's not a minute wasted. I'd name the highlights but all tracks are important and delightfully good. Start your Stars of the Lid collection here.
