Описание: One bright morning, world-renowned drummer Marco Minnemann settled down behind the DW kit in his secluded hideaway, punched the record button, and proceeded to pound out an astounding 52-minute improvised solo. When it was finished, he christened it Normalizer 2 and offered it as a sort of gift to a handful of his favorite guitarists, relishing the prospect of each adding his own signature madness to the mix.
Mike Keneally was someone Marco hoped would dig the idea. In the throes of recording his intense and complex Scambot 1 opus, Mike leapt at Marco's offer— the creation of Evidence of Humanity would be a joyous, freewheeling counterpoint to his meticulous work on Scambot. A fun ride, Mike would recall. (Of course, Marco recorded his own fantastic version, too, available at marcominnemann.com)
The ecstatic result is two of the world's foremost musicians improvising together, but not at the same time. It's a record unlike any other that Mike has recorded (but probably closest to Nonkertompf, his indefinable, mostly instrumental 1999 solo extravaganza). Evidence of Humanity seems to have a life of its own, mutating and maturing with each listen.
Accompanying the Evidence of Humanity CD is a region-free NTSC DVD containing a tasty reimagining of the original concept. This time, Mike and Marco got together in real time and vaulted into the ether for another 52-minute musical improvisation, a feat that was videotaped for your pleasure. The DVD also includes an insightful conversation between the two kindred musical spirits, shot in the back seat of a car hurtling toward the cover shoot in the Southern California desert's dilapidated Salton Sea.

Отзывы

Моя от себя (тина):
Я, конечно, пока ещё не шибко гурманистый в подобной музыке, но при прослушивании одноимённого CD получил больше удовольствия, чем от просмотра этого DVD. Не уловил изюминки, возможно, из-за нехватки единой темы, мелодии и некоторой разрозненности музыкантов (каждый играет что-то своё). Хотя это может быть и оправдано, т.к. этот DVD это вовсе НЕ live-версия CD (как я поначалу подумал), а абсолютно другой материал, судя по названиям треков*. Вообщем, видео для истинных фэнов творчества Майка и/или Марко, а также для ценителей замороченно-навороченной музыки.(с) Имхо(теп)* Треки с этого DVD составляют самостоятельный CD. Он называется Elements of a Manatee. Подробнее здесь.Review
(3 1/2 Stars out of 4) Minnemann hit pay dirt when he made the inspired decision to send the 52-minute improv piece to multi-instrumentalist Mike Keneally. Long adept at locating and exploiting that fine line between the experimental and the groove-and song-centric, Keneally turned Minnemann's towering display of dynamics and virtuosity into the song-cycle Evidence of Humanity, a record that is at once violently strange and thrillingly familiar.Jeff Meirs - The Buffalo NewsComment
The second disc is a DVD consisting of a 54 minute improvised duet by Minnemann and Keneally, and a conversation between the two musicians about this project while rolling down the highway somewhere in California. The duo improvisation takes place in the cramped quarters of a storage facility space. Also included are Keneally's bass overdubs for split screen viewing. After a couple of listening sessions, I'm not enjoying the DVD performance as much as the CD, but this could change with additional viewing/listening. Recommended to fans of exciting and challenging progressive rock music.Star Thrower

Доп. информация

DVD, по заявлению R.D., исходный (не сжатый-пересжатый). Тем не менее, предупреждаю заранее:
- качество картинки могло быть и почётче;
- на 0*52*00 заметил перегруз звука и небольшое потрескивание, как следствие (!)
- во втором разделе (A сonversation with ...) видео не плавное, как бы не хватает fps (возможно, из-за тряски в машине?).DVD - превью на youtube.com: раздел 1, раздел 2.CD - раздача Mike Keneally Marco Minnemann / Evidence Of Humanity FLAC (tracks+.cue) lossless
