Brighton belles Electrelane return with their 3rd album, 'Axes', a return to the mantra-like krautrock soundscapes of old. Like a female Quickspace, it opens with the kind of effortless metronomic genius that Stereolab used to piss in their sleep albeit with some of the loveliest piano you could imagine. Then it like, rocks out, dude. And then some.....Since no-one actually lives in krautland anymore, the four Sussex brides of Can have slinkied back to the 'Faust & Frogleg' public house & barricaded themselves in before the return of the zombies. Can you tell I've watched 'Shaun Of the Dead' too many times? CD (First few with free badges!!) & Double wax thru Too Pure.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
