Comments and Reviews
| Magic Marmalade 2nd Sep 2021 | ReviewA slacker's daydream... ...A very skiffle-ish set up with brushy snare and drums, slack acoustic guitars and bass, with the odd bit of electric giutar, Xylophone, violin and other equally leisurely sounding instruments. It's a bit like They Might Be Giants took up skiffle instruments to make a jaunty, early indie punk sound... shades of Television sometimes too. I can't help but think, that given the date of recording and release, and what others were doing at the time, this might be quite an important album, in shaping the "slacker" indie sound of the nineties, and would be very surprised if the likes of Beck, and other nineties acts weren't inspired or otherwise influenced by this album. Almost a blueprint for that coming sound, well before it's time. ...And not conceding to the contemporary sounds around them then (synths etc.), doesn't make this album dated in any way... as I have suggested, it could almost be mistaken for a nineties indie album. Book-ended by two great tunes; The first, a song Iwas pleased to say I already knew... (You've more than likely heard it too, being a feature on at least one nineties film: Grosse Pointe Blank) ...In the shape of Blister In The Sun, and the last, a very sensitive, memorable tune called Good Feeling, it all add up to a great "little" album, that fairly shuffles it's way along, with the occasional melancholy moments, punk-lite nods, and bops. And yes, possibly more important an album in the scheme of things than is generally realised. This pressing is a little flexible, but not overly so (not "Floppy" by any reckoning), but sounds great... full sharp, and with an acoustic weight that allows the music to roll about nicely. >One final thing of note, is that very striking cover, which, although looks like a reproduction print of some old oil painting that hangs in granny's hall way, it's actually a photograph, believe it or not, and having it standing in the room anywhere always draws the eye as a piece of art, just like a painting< ((It's also 40 years old next year... Possible candidate for an RSD release?)) 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review? | |
