Hooverphonic

The Magnificent Tree (2000)

[13-Tracks ]



















The Magnificent Tree è il terzo album della band Hooverphonic, capitolo che segnerà la consacrazione del gruppo sulla scena musicale internazionale. Ad anticipare il disco è il singolo Mad About You, brano che ha spopolato nelle radio e nelle emittenti televisive musicali, vendendo una considerevole quantità di cd singoli.



Il disco



L'album prosegue con quello che era il sound del precedente Blu Wonder Power Milk, esaltandone i toni acustici e melodici, facendolo risultare un lavoro di maggior facile approccio. Protagonista strumentale dell'album è senza dubbio la sezione di archi che accompagna buona parte dei brani, tra i quali i singoli Out of Sight e Vinegar & Salt. Inoltre Alex campiona un arpeggio di chitarra della canzone Guinnevere dei Crosby Stills and Nash's che inserisce nella title-track. L'album viene stampato in diverse edizioni, alcune delle quali contengono la bonus track Renaissance Affair, brano ripreso dal disco precedente ma che lo si ritrova adatto al contesto di The Magnificent Tree. Altre edizioni del disco contengono la canzone Visions (colonna sonora dei Campionati Europei di calcio del 2000) nelle sue versioni "long" e "edit", rispettivamente di 11.02 e 3.52 minuti. Infine, questo è il disco in cui Geike esordisce anche come compositrice di alcune liriche.



I singoli estratti: Mad About You, Out of Sight, Vinegar & Salt e Jackie Cane.







The Magnificent Tree is the third album by the Belgian band Hooverphonic. The singles released from this album are "Mad About You", "Out Of Sight", "Vinegar & Salt" and "Jackie Cane". The cover features the band members and a tree located on the town of Kieldrecht in Belgium.



The album received moderate reviews from critics, and according to Metacritic holds a rating of 57/100.



MTV.com states that, with the album, "Hooverphonic's sound has become increasingly hip and cosmopolitan, slowly processing out everything that made it so alluring in the first place". Conversely, according to allmusic "Classic embryonic vocalic beauty from Geike Arnaert still carries the translucence of the band's signature ethereality" and "songs such as "Out of Sight" and "Mad About You" are thoroughly dramatic and make for an illustrious listen".In many ways, this was the album that brought Hooverphonic onto the world stage, with songs such as "Mad About You" getting attention in the United States, expanding their fan base further afield.
