Dead Can Dance – Spiritchaser (1996, Australia/UK)
Our next spotlight is on number 308 on The List, submitted by owlyph.
Originally founded in 1981 out of Australia’s experimental post-punk Little Band[1] scene (and, I suppose, New Zealand’s punk rock[2] scene) and then finding a home in UK’s goth scene, within a couple of albums Dead Can Dance found the lush, instantly recognizable sound that would make core duo Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry the Queen and King of neoclassical darkwave. And that sound – with Gerrard’s stunning vocals channelling the “abstract vocabulary that lies within the collective unconscious”[3] over the varied shiny sounds the pair had collected from all corners of the world like sonic magpies – is what we hear on this, their meditative seventh studio album and last release prior to their first hiatus (1998 to 2005). (It’s also the group’s first album released after Gerrard began her solo career, having just released her debut The Mirror Pool the previous year.)
And so, if you are familiar with any Dead Can Dance from about 1985 on, there will be no surprises here – you’re in for a chill, gorgeous ride around the globe. The weirdest thing about this album? Apparently one sound that might have been unconsciously collected is a short bit in the third track, “Indus”, which, due to blink-and-you’ll-miss-it similarity to The Beatles’ “Within You Without You” (from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band), the group was pressured into crediting George Harrison as a co-writer. As per Gerrard:
“We don’t know whether we stole it or not. We probably did, but who the hell knows?…It wasn’t deliberate, because we didn’t remember the record. I’m really unfamiliar with the Beatles’ work…musicologists are saying, ‘Oh, the first six notes are the same.’ So we had to contact George Harrison, who didn’t give a damn, frankly. He was gardening at the time. He said ‘Oh, I like that piece of music. It’s OK.’ But the [record company] pushed it, So we had to give credit to Harrison on the thing, which seems really bizarre.”[4]
And so, though we at 1001 Other Albums are known elsewhere on the Internets for not liking the Beatles,[5] I suppose with this spotlight I’m indirectly suggesting you also listen to a Beatles album. Because I don’t give a damn, frankly, and only wish someone will one day say of me in regards to a supposedly controversial moment: ‘they were gardening at the time’.
- Lisa Gerrard’s previous band was experimental post-punk Microfilm; Gerrard was the vocalist. ↩︎
- Brendan Perry’s previous band was originally formed in New Zealand as The Scavengers (Perry joined in 1977 as bass player and then vocalist), who then relocated to Melbourne, Australia in 1979 and changed their name to The Marching Girls. ↩︎

Oil Things Must Pass
==================[Verse 1]
Our governments are always warring
Killing keeps gas price at bay
Poor people’s blood, rich man’s profit
I just don’t believe what they say[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away[Verse 2]
We’re destroying all the natural greenery
No place left, for the kids to play
They choke on toxic fumes, while coughing
It doesn’t have to be this way.[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away[Bridge]
Oil things must pass
No human beings can last
So we must switch to solar power now, without delay[Verse 3]
Sunlight doesn’t cost a penny.
Solar batteries get recharged all day.
Planet Earth heated up, despite all warnings.
Let’s cool it, before it’s too late.[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away- Ashwin Dixit.
( Thanks to George Harrison )
