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 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.
