High Civilization and the Prominence of Bee Gees: A
Bee Gees is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to the music industry, and it's no surprise that they have successfully made their way into the hearts of listeners worldwide with their distinct sound, artistic approaches, and unique genre amalgamations. One of their popular albums that generated both negative and positive reviews was High Civilization, which was released in 1991.
In this post, we will be taking a of High Civilization by Bee Gees. We will also give some context about the history of the artist, music genre of the album, best songs, most innovative parts, and ultimately, our verdict on the album.
Bee Gees's success story started in the '60s when they moved from England to Australia. They continued their career in 1966 when they returned to England, and their album Bee Gees 1st became a tremendous hit. Bee Gees are popularly known for their disco sound in the '70s, and they skewed their sound slightly in the '80s to keep up in the music industry with the rise of electronic music.
High Civilization is more of a blend of pop and rock than an emulation of Bee Gees' disco sound. The album features Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb, and Maurice Gibb, and it was produced and written by the Gibb brothers themselves. The album's instrumentation and production style are electronic, with a few analog instruments thrown in, such as guitar.
The album consists of 12 tracks, and although it features a subdued and considered take on the genre, it reeks of Bee Gees's trademark sonic synthesis. Some of the best songs on the album include High Civilization, Ghost Train, and Happy Ever After, where Bee Gees's expertise in an electronic sound is prominent.
One of the most innovative parts of the album is the use of reverse reverb on the vocals, which creates an echo-like effect that fans haven't heard from Bee Gees in their previous albums. This effect creates a haunting sensation in such tracks as Heart Like Mine and Silent Running. The lyrics of the album are thought-provoking, and the music production is impressive. However, some critics say the album lacks cohesion, which makes the track list a lot less memorable than other Bee Gees albums.
In conclusion, although High Civilization is a bit different from Bee Gees's previous upbeat albums, it is still a solid album that confidently represents the artist's sound. Our take on the album is that it is innovative, ambitious and full of surprises. However, it's fair to say that the album didn't receive much commercial appreciation compared to Bee Gees's previous collections.

In short, High Civilization represents Bee Gees's artistry and ability to adopt different styles while still keeping true to their sound. Fans of you electronic and synth-pop sounds may appreciate it the most, while some earlier Bee Gees fans may not vibe with it as much. However, being creative and innovative is something the Bee Gees have always been known for, and High Civilization is just one of many examples of that.
