Ascoltare/Um - Split

Split by Ascoltare/Um

5...according to our on Mon 27 Nov, 2006.

Completely fucking barking 12" picture disc here, a split between the totally bizarre Ascoltare & the insane Um (who we had a rather alarming 7" in by a while back) Um come first. Wevie Stonder fronted by Suggs from Madness doing 'Mushroom' by Can. That's the fist couple of minutes. Also throw in a healthy measure of Cursor Miner (on acid) & Fat Barry's long forgotten discovery, Meadow House (remember THAT lathe cut on Jonathon Whiskey???) This is remarkably disorientating & suitably disturbing & does so remind me of 'The Wooden Horse Of Troy' but a whole lot more unhinged. Some afro-ed dude on that side looking very tapped like he's just wandered from a blaxploitation movie set onto the middle of a donkey porn blow job sesh & can't quite register what his eyes are telling him. The Ascoltare side is basically huge chunks of chef Rick Stein ranting about fish at, presumably, some outdoor market blended with the sound of a large gang of very drunk  mice staggering all over someone's laptop & being sick. Absolute belter of oddball proportions. If you dig yer music weird & funny then purchase this sick & wrong disc with glee.
