'AUDIO VERITE/DECEPTIVE BLENDS'
'AUDIO VERITE/DECEPTIVE BLENDS' is the brand new album by THE TREAT & the long awaited follow up to the critically acclaimed 'Phonography' album.
Packed full of 20 tracks, giving nearly an hour and a half's worth of music, the album is a Double CD and covers a wider range of styles than on 'Phonography' and sees THE TREAT adding elements of folk, jazz, funk, country & ethnic music to their continuing love of progressive, psychedelic & classic rock styles. THE TREAT have broadened their sonic palette by introducing mandolin, banjo, theremin, sitar, tablas, timpani, melodica & harmonium to enrich their sound yet further.
Ever the purists, THE TREAT have divided the CD into 4 themed 'sides' (2 per CD) - as would have been the format on a traditional vinyl album - to take in 'Rock', 'Acoustic', 'Electric' & 'Experimental' facets of their work.
The album has the usual high production values, excellent musicianship, arranging and songwriting craft that THE TREAT are now known for. The double CD album comes with a full colour lavish 12 page booklet, with many photos and the lyrics to all the songs.
The track listing on the album is as follows :
THIS IS THE ONE/SHOWTIME/DRAWING LINES/ON THE WATERFRONT/FOR A REASON/BEAUTIFUL WAY/CYCLES/SWEET JASMINE/BY THE SEA/THE DRAGON DEN/MASSIVE ATTACK/ANGER MANAGEMENT/CYBERNAUT/SILENT VOICES/FARMER JACK'S TREE/CITIZEN OF THE WORLD/THE ART OF DECEPTION/FAN THE FLAMES/LITTLE FLY*/IN MY OWN TIME
