Our Take

Peter Gabriel's "New Blood" is a swirling, symphonic reimagining of the legendary artist's greatest hits. Gabriel, known for his eccentricity and boundary-pushing music, has teamed up with an orchestra to give his classic tracks a new lease of life.

The album kicks off with a majestic orchestral rendition of "Red Rain," setting the tone for what's to come. The lush strings, powerful brass, and haunting choral arrangements breathe new life into Gabriel's music, adding layers of depth and emotion.

Tracks like "Digging in the Dirt" and "Solsbury Hill" are transformed into grand, sweeping epics, highlighting Gabriel's eclectic songwriting and innovative production. The orchestra's intricate arrangements bring a new perspective to these timeless classics, making them feel fresh and exciting all over again.

Gabriel's distinctive voice soars over the orchestral backdrop, adding a sense of urgency and passion to the music. His delivery is as captivating as ever, intertwining with the orchestra to create a mesmerising sound.

"New Blood" is a bold, ambitious project that showcases Gabriel's creative vision and musical prowess. It's a must-listen for fans of the artist's work, as well as anyone looking for a unique and innovative take on classic pop and rock music. Gabriel continues to push the boundaries of his artistry, and "New Blood" is a testament to his enduring talent and creativity.
