Accolades for Take Me to Your Leader
Any fan of electronic music, progressive rock or spacerock should be able to enjoy this, and it won't fail to please the rabid Hawkwind fan. Take Me to Your Leader continues to explore different sonic landscapes and the band continues to improve their skill at doing what they do. Hawkwind has always changed with the times in their own way, and this record looks towards the future - not the past - in the same way that all the other Hawkwind discs do.
It is my belief that each album from Hawkwind is a different spiritual, and psychological journey, and must be undertaken by each listener in order for its value to be measured. It is up to each of us alone to find our particular niche in the auditory trip Hawkwind unravels for us on every studio endeavor. That being said, I was pleased to find that the current trio of Brock, Davey, and Chadwick have not only lost none of their grit and electronic savvy, and are not content to merely hover, but are still moving forward at light speed! As for those who are for the first time discovering this band, I can only advise you that while some Hawkwind albums are stronger or more unique than others, there is no such thing as a poor studio Hawkwind album! As I stated at the start, each has its place in time, space, consistency, and intention. 'Get your mind right', put the headphones on, turn the lights out, and let Hawkwind take you where they must.
