From Amazon.com
After veering sharply from the blues inluences of their debut, This Was, Jethro Tull's sound quickly coalesced around jazz-tinged English folk influences and the antics of frontman/flautist Ian Anderson. But it was guitarist Martin Barre's swaggering riff off the title track of the band's fourth album that would become Tull's indelibly clichéd trademark--and the band's entrée into a long reign as arena-rock perennials. But there's a lot more to Aqualung than the riffage of that cut and its cousins, "Cross-Eyed Mary" and "Locomotive Breath." In an era when pseudo-Christian spirituality was a de rigueur, if cheap, musical commodity (from the overblown operatics of Jesus Christ Superstar to one-hit pop wonders such as "Spirit in the Sky" and "Put Your Hand in the Hand"), Anderson and company openly challenged the value of organized religion with a thematic album savvy enough to layer its thought-provoking lyrics between heavy strata of FM-friendly guitar bedrock. A cliché, perhaps; a landmark, no doubt. And a record many maintain is still Tull's finest hour. --Jerry McCulley
Chronique amazon.fr
Ce quatrième album du groupe de Ian Anderson, paru en 1971, est celui qui consacre Jethro Tull comme une force dominante sur le marché du rock progressif et du hard rock du début des années 70. On en retiendra les riffs de guitare particulièrement dynamiques des morceaux "My God", "Hymn 43", "Locomotive Breath" ou "Wind-Up". Ainsi que le jeu et l'écriture des titres qui partent en guerre contre les religions organisées, preuve du prosélytisme panthéiste et musical d'Anderson. --Florent Mazzoleni
