What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Clint feeling happy.

I don't know what the fuck to make of this new Matt Elliott album. Its sounds like scary circus music. Really sinister. Sounds kind of French which is apt as France is where Mr Elliott currently resides with lady and child. But despite this picture of domesticity this is one of the most dark twisted albums I've ever heard. Barely a beat in sight either. Somewhere between Yann Tiersen and Tom Waits but......darker. The Mess We Made is CD only courtesy of Domino

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.

'what on earth do you think you're looking at?'
