Album


Amethyst Rock Star is the debut solo studio album by Saul Williams. It was released by American Recordings in 2001. It peaked at number 135 on the French Albums Chart. 5 stars out of 5, saying: Some of the language is downright laughable see the trite themes of 'Fearless' for example in any context, and the rest is mediocre at best. Kitty Empire of NME gave the album 3. 5 stars out of 5, calling it an ambitious collision of rock, hip-hop and spoken word. Saul Williams is a step above those, but this record isn't recommended unless you've got a jones to get in touch with your inner Bobby Seale or have plenty of pent-up rage you'd like someone else to excise. Instead of giving his spoken poems a melody and rhythm, Williams prefers to use words as clubs, beating the listener over the head with abrasive, staccato runs while heavy hip-hop beats blast in the background. Saul has long expressed his dislike for drum machines, devoting whole songs to the subject the phenomenal Twice the First Time, and with this band of session musicians behind him, he's free to pursue whatever it is he thinks sounds better than his more hip-hop-inspired work. It's on the more band-centric tracks that the record's pretentiousness is unsheathed. The problem is, I don't know of a place for Amethyst Rock Star. Your level of enjoyment depends on how much you invest in the lyrics and metaphors- Saul's observations come flying at breakneck speeds and require undivided attention, rendering the album unlistenable as background music.
