What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

From Grime to leftfieldpostspace rock hailing from the wilds of Genoa in Italy, here come Port-Royal. Collapsing comfortably between the ethereal flab of Sigur Ros & the polished head-scapes of EITS, 'Flares' is an absorbing & innovative progression for my ears at least. Atmospheric is a word that my internal thesaurus should have taken outside for a "right ROYAL bashing" by now, but no, It's a stubborn bugger & has returned brandishing a sawn off shotgun & a hammer. I know all this post rock palaver by now. Keyboard set to "laser", twinkling guitars like shards of brittle glass, mesmeric drums & quietly looming bass pulses. It takes you to a place near the North sea & just when you think you're about to make love to a dolphin, It feeds the entire line up of 65 Days Of Static to a rabid shark right in front of your eyes. Right bloomin' good, then....CD only

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.
