KING CREOSOTE comes last, the Fence head honcho with a highly distinctive & unusual voice. Yearning Celtic vocals over a motorik future folk thrum starts off 'Psalm Clerk' with earnest. It's 23 tracks (count 'em) work really well, veering from finger picking wavering folk, full of heartbreak & hope, to more gauntly & foot tapping campfire gems, flecked with strange samples & otherwordly sounds. There's a hugely organic attitude to the occasional electronics on this disc that transcends any "folktronic" tag. This is warm & hugely distinctive music from a true, original talent. yes, this has got me wanting to fully immerse myself in his vast back catalogue, a rich tapestry of emotive music. Lovely!
TRACKS:
one angel no wings / you cuckoos / plans best laid / guess the time / clerkworks / not one bit ashamed / snakes from single socks / figure 8 / who did you kill on the way up? / more often than nought / angela loves kc / such fine deeds / marianne loves kc / my problem is ... / your own spell / happy with our lot / scoring you twice / love your present / mercy killing / no contest kwaing / spy stick / musakal lives / buzz off

"admiral beardypuss and the great chaos number extravaganza"
Fence's ringleader, the inexhaustible KC, spent the entirety of 2003 concocting Psalm Clerk - astoundingly, his 23rd album (this year). For those who doubt the King's reputation for musical fecundity, let it be known that NONE of the 23 (that number again) tracks that feature on the album can be found on 'Kenny and Beth's Musakal Boat Rides'. Also features a reworked and exclusive version of the single 'Love Your Present'.
