Semisonic - Pleasure EP album flac

Great Divide is the debut studio album by American rock band Semisonic. It was released April 9, 1996 by MCA Records. It was produced by Paul Fox, and was recorded and mixed by Ed Thacker. Semisonic had signed a record contract with Elektra Records to record the Great Divide album. During recording, Bob Krasnow, the president of Elektra Records had quit, and in the changeover to a new president, the label dropped Semisonic. The band then signed with MCA Records, and finished recording the album.

Pleasure serves as an introduction to Semisonic's blend of melodic, guitar-driven pop and sensitive, '70s-flavored ballads. Issued while the band awaited the release of their first full-length effort, this EP features early versions of "The Prize" and "Brand New Baby," both of which were later revamped for Great Divide. The band succeeds in many styles, whether it's the whimsical power-pop of "Sculpture Garden," the stripped-down acoustic sound of "The Gift," or the soulful tones of "Star. Pleasure is a brief sample of Semisonic that leaves the listener hungering for more.

The Pleasure EP by Semisonic is a fascinating look at one of the current music scene's best bands in its formative stages. Only seven of the fourteen tracks are actual songs, the other seven being bits and pieces of conversation and noise, but the music that is there is quite good. The first two songs, "The Prize" and "Brand New Baby", sound a little weak compared to their professionally produced versions on Semisonic's debut album "Great Divide", but the others are extremely well done and sound surprisingly clean for demos. I always liked Pleasure better than Feeling Strangely Fine or All About Chemistry. It manages to capture a little of the indie feeling without losing developed sound production, and fans of melodic indie will really like this. Above all, the songwriting is just great.
