What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Brian feeling happy.

Too Pure's wonky chanteuse Scout Niblett always throws up the goods. Her cracked & schizoid attitude to music making I find utterly beguiling, kind of like a crazed hybrid of Cat Power & PJ Harvey. Less solo on this outing with a more sonically adventurous drummer in place, Albini's dense & intense production values are shoved brazenly to the forefront creating a breathtaking vortex of airy sound. Songs rise, build &  breath, Repetition is oft employed. I am enjoying this tons. Cat Power is uttered in the background but I hear shades of Shannon Wright too. The disjointed eccentricities & incoherent sketches of yore have become fleshed out & realised as powerful songs in their own right whilst still retaining a simple, minimalist coda. The gal done good!

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.
