Police - Synchronicity .jpg) .jpg) .gif) By Al Massa
Synchronicity is the last full-length studio recording from the
Police, the final evolution of their sound, and the album that yielded
their greatest success. It is a brilliant pop record, but it's something
more, as well. The singles, particularly "Every Breath You
Take," "King of Pain," and "Wrapped Around Your
Finger," while pure gems by themselves, are an integral part of the
album's musical and lyrical texture. As the title indicates, the album's
intellectual content is inspired by C.G. Jung's psychosocial connecting
principle and it manifests lyrically in some of the most evocative imagery
Sting has ever created. Musically, the band defines a sonic space with
arrangements that are often spare to the point of transparency. The songs
are constructed from delicate arpeggios and eerie washes of guitar,
sinuous keyboard lines, solid, repetitive bass figures, and the signature
Stewart Copeland drum sound, all topped by Sting's voice moving through a
wide range of pitch and sentiment. Synchronicity is a collection
that creates and sustains a mood in the sensitive listener, a feeling that
remains after the last note has died away. A benchmark album from a
tremendously influential band, it will stand the test of time as a genuine
classic.
