Eyeless In Gaza - Butterfly Attitude (CD)

Back in the 90's when I was buying records on Downwards by Regis and Surgeon if you would have told me they'd be putting records out by cult post-punk act Eyeless In Gaza I'd have choked on my Tab Clear but here we are in 2012 and that's exactly what's occurring.

Martyn Bates and Peter Becker have been around for like 30 years or something and I reckon that alone deserves kudos. 'Butterfly Attitude' was commissioned as a sister record to a forthcoming album which will be released on CD. I have to admit that over the years these are a group that I've never really immersed myself in, although they're clearly very good at what they do they've just never really pulled me in. Listening to the latest offering I can hear the appeal and it's obviously quality but again I struggle.

To it's credit it's very honest music that rides its own wave with no regard whatsoever of current trends. No doubt if you've followed these guys over the years you'll be eager to check this out.
