What you say No-one has reviewed Rain On Lens by Smog yet. Give us your opinion on Rain On Lens by Smog. What we say This record left our Phil feeling happy. The new Smog LP  (Rain On Lens) is in and I've only heard the 1st few tracks but this is shaping up to one I like. The 2nd track sounds like Captain Beefheart/ Birthday Party. That was the stand out track out of the few I heard. Unlike most Smog LP's I shall be giving this some further attention. What the label says: Rain On Lens has a similar feel to y2k’s Dongs Of Sevotion. It pushes against the fully orchestrated production he enjoyed with Jim O’Rourke on 1997’s Red Apple Falls and 98’s Knock Knock, but is sharper and more focussed than his earlier records, leaving us with a maturer sounding (Smog); wisdom a-plenty.

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
