CHRIST is back. No Easter hasn't come early. Scotland's Benbecula label have finally released the second full length album from ex-Boards Of Canada (I bet he's sick of reading that) bloke 'Liquid Chris H'. . 'Blue Shift Emissions' is a funny one. One minute I'm floating through space, the next I'm in some chill out room drinking specialty teas watching a bunch of sweaty gurners performing their chin gymnastics routines. Seriously though there are some interesting moments that Boards fans that were left wanting more from 'The Campfire Headphase' will no doubt appreciate. 'Stained Century' in particular is fantastic piece of deep atmospheric electronica. Some gorgeous, moving melodies are woven into this rich audio tapestry. Well worth checking and proves that he is an artist in his own right that deserves to sell records on their quality alone and not just because of the Boards Of Canada association.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

Christ. finally returns with his long awaited second long player.  Following the intermediate "Seeing and Doing EP" in 2005 which journeyed through an introspective path, Christ.'s new album is a return to the melodic fold and builds upon his unique individual style that was unleashed to the world via his "Pylonesque" debut.
