What you say No-one has reviewed Ham by The Chap yet. Give us your opinion on Ham by The Chap. What we say This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic. The Chap have rightfully seen fit to call their new album 'Ham'. I can't believe no one has ever had the foresight to call their record ham. If that isn't enough the sleeve has a picture of a tiger wearing a mask. There's almost no point mentioning anything about the lunacy contained within cos you're all gonna rush out and buy it armed with that knowledge. But if you're not as childish as me you'll need some convincing eh? OK I'll give it my best shot. Crazy twisted pop with electronics totally lacking in structure but completely listenable in every way. This is totally bizarre and utterly unlike anything else you'll ever here which is always refreshing. Maybe someone will be able to sandwich it their end of year polls? ouch....

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.
