Reviews Customer Reviews for Seamonsters      Sound of speed      Rating:       In the early 90's at one of the many low points of my life I discovered the Wedding Present. The music was vast, rambled on and was delivered with a bone crushing intensity. It seemed perfect. I related to everything about it except the lyrics ( well maybe a little). David Gedge seemed like a magnent for bad relationships, flirting and acting kinda dirty or sleazy. All of which I WASN'T BUT ADMIRED. Seamonsters marked a different direction for the band. Their fast and frenetic playing was augmented by the production duties of Steve Albini. Giving all the songs a puchy live in your living room feel that Albini does on all his productions. One of my favorite albums of the 90's. The only thing that is close to filler are the added b-sides. Even those are good.     Customer Reviews for Seamonsters Cd      TheWeddingPresent - Seamonsters      Rating:      The first time I listened to this CD I knew it would become one of my favorites. The opening riff of Dalliance is merely an overture to the experience in which you are about to partake. What makes this CD unique is, regardless of your state-of-mind, it wills you into that of the the artists' intended listener. From that point forward, you are guided by TheWeddingPresent through the rest of this work. This CD is unmistakenly beautiful. I used to hear influences of Joy Division & The Buzzcocks. The time signatures reflected the early Pixies (but I doubt any influence). Now Seamonsters has taken on a life of its' own. It's been 12 years since I originally purchased this CD. It still yields a different emotional interpretation everytime I listen to it.
