Aphrodite’s Child – 666 (1971)

27Aug08

666 is a double-disc prog concept album based on the Book of Revelation.

I wouldn’t recommend listening to “Infinity” alone in the dark; it’s the most terrifying thing I’ve ever heard. It sounds like a demon-possessed woman being raped. Even extreme genres like black and death metal make people headbang and throw devil signs in the air, and that’s, you know, fun. “Infinity” isn’t fun. It’s just really fucking scary.

On the flip side, there’s “The Four Horsemen,” an insanely catchy rocker that it’s almost impossible not to air-drum to. All in all, it’s a very diverse album, even with the unifying theme. It’s almost impossible to give a general sense of what it sounds like. Just expect lots of pretentious but kind of awesome spoken word narration, creepy sound effects and more crazy time signatures that you can shake a stick at!

    I always found Infinity more kinky (in a weird, slightly uncomfortable way) than terrifying.

    What’s most terrifying about it is that you can’t tell if she’s dying or having an orgasm.
