Reviews Customer Reviews for Ghost In The Machine Digipak A masterpiece Rating: With the Police's 4th album, they completely redefined their sound ... and the result is arguably their greatest record.
Sounding unlike anything produced before or since, this song melds superb pop craftsmanship with a surprisingly sophisticated political and spiritual outlook. And while it's perhaps not as accessible as "Synchronicity," it's musically even more complex and sophisticated.
Customer Reviews for Ghost In The Machine Digipak Cd Awesome Album Rating: This one really is one of my ultimate favorites. In general, The Police are a great band & this is one their best. Very creative.
Editorial Reviews for Ghost In The Machine Digipak Audio Cd Amazon.com essential recording Dark, somber, and thematically unified as no previous album by the Police, Ghost in the Machine deals almost exclusively with the negative effects of modern political and technological culture. The only departure from this focus is "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic," a perfect pop song and radio hit. Elsewhere, the album treats such issues as the hope underlying resistance to oppression, the dismissal of most of the nonindustrialized world, the daily bombardment of words and images that overload the senses, and the frequent recourse to violence for personal or political expression. The songs are presented in what are, for the Police, unusually dense, layered arrangements. Andy Summers's guitar lines are even more ethereal than usual, with Sting's bass parts bobbing in a mix seasoned with keyboards and sax and propelled by Stewart Copeland's unmistakable, idiosyncratic drumming. While Synchronicity gave the Police their greatest success with hits and videos, Ghost in the Machine is the band's best recording. --Albert Massa
