Approximately Infinite Universe
Boomkat Product Review:
There’s a fury at the core of Yoko Ono’s 1973 rock opus ‘Approximately Infinite Universe’ that was not apparent on previously recorded efforts.
"Ono has always been a master of turning pain and sadness into art but here there’s a clenched-fist intensity that sets it apart in her deep, unparalleled catalogue.
Ono is angry. She proved that one can carry a boundless love for humanity and still be furious - furious at male/female relationships, at war, at your partner. Meanwhile, on a sonic level, Ono ups the ante on the more centred rock & roll sounds she approached with 1971’s ‘Fly’.
The album is one of the most traditional-sounding rock chapters in Ono’s sprawling catalogue. There are moments here that absolutely rival Jersey legends the E Street Band, though of course Ono’s vision leads her band down darker, more mystical paths than the E Street Band ever dared tread.
‘Approximately Infinite Universe’ is an essential and progressive piece of Ono’s output, both in the advancements she made as a songwriter/conceptualist and as a solidified statement of her staunch feminist role within the very male-dominated mainstream rock ghetto of the mid-1970s."
