CRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX features folks from Mogwai, Gonga, Electric Wizard and
Panthiest. I suspect you probably know of Mogwai
but the rest may seem a little obscure? It's a lovely floaty thing with
some nice spanish guitar in the background making me think of a
slightly post rock
Radiohead.
It's very lush indeed but for the life of me can't think what on earth
it sounds like. I'd recommend this one anyway! Its a 10" on
GeoffBarrow's label Invada (dude from Portishead!) and I believe it's been recorded by him
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
