about this album

Spiritchaser (1996) was the last studio album of Dead Can Dance before Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard went their separate ways. It expands on its exploration of world music and like Into the Labyrinth, Spiritchaser was recorded at Quivvy Church, Perry's personal studio in Ireland. The track "Indus" contains a melody that is very similar to the melody of "Within You Without You," a Beatles song that George Harrison composed with Indian musicians. Although not deliberate, Perry and Gerrard were asked to contact Harrison for his permission to use it; he granted it, but the record company insisted that they give him partial songwriting credit for it. The track list is as follows: 1 Nierika – 5:44 2 Song of the Stars – 10:13 3 Indus – 9:23 4 Song of the Dispossessed – 4:55 5 Dedicacé Outò – 1:14 6 The Snake and the Moon – 6:11 7 Song of the Nile – 8:00 8 Devorzhum – 6:13 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
