“Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.”

Seems fitting.
"Pierce’s studio collage of art culminates in the second album (neglecting limited edition rip-offs), Pure Phase (Dedicated, 1995), a work of the scientific stratification of sounds. The music played by Pierce, Sean Cook (bass) and Kate Radley (keyboard) all-in-all is an insignificant fact: what counts is Pierce’s digital alchemy.

From the effect of this luxurious and eccentric “arrangement”, the album ends up watering down their characteristic hypnotic drones. The music is a triumph of hippie spirituality, but all-in-all, it is an astute recycling (and, at most, post-modern) of genres and stereotypes. Some references are explicit, like in the blues-rock of “Good Times” and in the gospel of “Medication” (one of the only real “songs” on the album). The masks that Pierce puts on them are abstruse and deforming. The tone is always the lazy and coy one of an all-out drug addict, but the genius of the informed studio user. From the fusion of these two personalities, an entire generation of British experimenters is born, and Pierce magistrally represents it. The psychedelic ride of “These Blues” and the dilated raga of “Take Good Care of It” have been played thousands of times in the annals of rock, but no one had ever played them like him.

By dint of re-elaborating canon, Pierce achieves original and suggestive results, even if only for a few minutes. For example, in “The Slide Song” for ethereal vocalizations and bucolic flutes, or in the spectral lullaby of “Let It Flow”.

Without conceding a millimeter of his trance-psychedelic position, in many moments Pierce’s method brushes avant-guard music: in the micro-concert of feedback and violin of “All of My Tears”, in the mini-symphony of “Spread Your Wings”, in its chameleon-like procedure, a truly heart-breaking melody soars. The minimalist wandering of “Electric Mainline” instead looks at Terry Riley of “Rainbow in Curved Air”. Lastly, a detour in the ambient realm with echoes iterated with “Pure Phase”.

Pierce lets the tracks repeat themselves ad infinitum, minute variations of a grand principal variation. In this way, he can toy with the recording apparatus and savor with Olympic calm his tricks of psychedelic master. The album is the most self-indulgent of his career, but Pierce is recognized as having performed miracles of arrangement, bundling up “pretty” sounds in a painstaking manner.

The Spiritualized lullabys that put an insomniac to sleep chase hynposis and trance with the passion of a collector but with the talent of a librarian. If they had the slightest sense of humor, they would be a splendid parody of the genre. As often happens with British psychedelia, Spiritualized say in ten minutes what they could say in three, and often say absolutely nothing at all."
