Ray Of Light is that once-in-a-lifetime career move (if you’re lucky): a bold, risky, experimental, progressive comeback album that has taken on a life of its own. With its diverse musical influences - from ambient to trance to dub to techno to bossa nova to grunge to Eastern and classical music (whew) - its influence has been massive. While Madonna was hardly the one to pioneer these genres, she was undoubtedly one of the first to integrate them into a cohesive pop package, acting as a catalyst for their mainstream acceptance and once again shifting the pop discourse. To listen to Ray Of Light is to embark on an introspective and spiritually-attuned sonic journey. Eric thinks that, for all of its endearing flaws and would-be eye-rolls, Ray Of Light is pretty much a perfect album. Nich maybe agrees? One thing’s for certain: Ray Of Light is the Pop Bible.
