Description / Review:

————————

The Dots expend more effort on The Maria Dimension, a highly imaginative but relatively straightforward (for this decidedly bent group) and consistently engrossing collection that romps ambitiously ‰ÛÓ and, more often than not, successfully ‰ÛÓ through colorful ’60sish psychedelia, electronics, disconcerting sound effects and baroque pop. A most entertaining and stimulating trip.

I am quite surprised that no one made an effort to review this album yet. The only thing I can say is that, if I could choose one album I could take with me on Desert Island, it would be The Maria Dimension. I have been listening to it for years and always stayed fascinated. Legendary Pink Dots is a phenomenon, is sort of band you either love or hate and if you eventually get into their psychedelic world with enigmatic-mystical lyrics written by the Prophet himself Edward Ka-Spel, you will stay there forever. Before you realizing it becomes indispensable part of your life and like with a drug you need to take a dosage from time to time to function properly. This music is absorbing, fascinating, intriguing and simply beautiful. Listen to Bella Donna IMHO the best ballad they ever composed with its rather perverse lyrics and you will desire to own a copy of this album for your own. Atmosphere on this album is so eerie, hypnotic and mesmerizing, you can feel unfathomably the universe pulsing in your head and your head to the rhythm of the universe absorbed by Kaspel‰Ûªs voice floating in the ether. Loops and electronic scratches by Silverman are just top-notch, creating very intimate soundscape epics. In one word: a masterpiece.

25 years after the DotsÕ classic psychedelic masterwork was recorded, this set marks the first time the entire ÔMaria DimensionÕ album has been released on vinyl.

In addition to the original album, remastered and presented here as a double LP in a deluxe gatefold sleeve, the box includes another gatefold double LP and an additional single LP from the same Maria sessions. Limited to 300 copies, this slipcase box edition comes with notes, rare photosÉ
