Like all good parables,
Jane Weaver
's sixth solo album, a concept album called
The Silver Globe
, is as multifaceted as it is beguiling. Part coming of age/part cautionary tale and part romantic peon, this 12-track synth-ridden post-apocalyptic prog-pop opus is based on tightly embroidered, non-linear recurring themes and inspired by esoteric stories, cosmic imagery and refiltered past experiences. Written from the optimistic vantage of a long-standing female independent artist, in a desperately-evolving industry, Jane's latest set of self-penned pop abstractions combine mechanical rock/recycled European cinema/empyrean vocalizations and an arsenal of rescued vintage synths to create a futurist narrative backdrop of an allegorical post-apocalyptic landscape. Assembled from disparate studio sessions recorded sporadically since the release of the critically-acclaimed
Fallen by Watchbird
(BMS 022CD) LP,
The Silver Globe
explores new collaborative relationships featuring tracks co-produced by
David Holmes
, guest appearances by Australian vintage space-rockers
Cybotron
, a recycled chunk of an '80s
Hawkwind
track, an intricate
Damon Gough
guitar solo, some
Suzanne Ciani
waves and post-production/remix flourishes by
Andy Votel
. Enjoying her most fertile period to date, Jane's reactions to the music of Italian synth stars
Daniela Casa
and
Doris Norton
with local DIY artists like
Una Baines
'
The Fates
(released on her own Bird imprint) provide yet another launch pad for Jane's latest musical trajectories. Paying homage in title to the troublesome
Andrzej Zulawski
(
Possession
) film of the same title, and combining influences from a wide range of lost pop and cinematic obscurities, Jane's new album uses the motif of a distant, mythical, impenetrable silver planet which eventually reveals itself to be a simple reflection of the beholder's own souls. Loosely metaphorical in its content,
The Silver Globe
witnesses Jane's commitment to self-pressed, conceptual pop music reach its next logical progression without compromising her natural skills as a talented, melodic song-writer preserving pop vaudeville over pre-packed vacuity.
