''Wild Opera'' is No-Man's third studio album which displays art rock, trip hop and dub influences that were developed from improvisatory writing sessions. ==History== In 1996, No-Man announced their return on a new label 3rd Stone Ltd., home of Spacemen 3 and Bark Psychosis. This was led by the ''Housewives Hooked On Heroin'' single (a ''Hot Press'' "Single of the Fortnight"), a taster for the ''Wild Opera'' album which followed that autumn. ''Wild Opera'' was a far darker, more beat-driven and wilfully exploratory recording than ''Flowermouth'', with lyrics and moods musing on a fractured, threatening and often crushing world. No-Man's taste for melancholy balladry and cinematic art rock soundscaping was still in evidence, but this time it was joined by savage industrial dance, luscious trip hop and odder pop excursions than the band had ever attempted before. Most of the album had emerged from a series of semi-spontaneous improvisations recorded over a few hours, rather than planned-out attempts at songwriting. The raw results of three such sessions appeared on the album, revealing new and more direct No-Man working methods. ''Wild Opera'' was a reinvention presented to a press that were still coming to grips with the band's re-emergence, and consequently reviews were mixed and often confused. Over the years the album would become an insidious musical force, gradually gaining more underground attention. The title track itself is unlisted and appears as a 'hidden' bonus track. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wild Opera」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
