Mechanical Bride's name reminds me of that scary Marcel Duchamp thing done in two panes of glass, that's some of my favourite shit, yo. 'The Black Skeleton Sea' comes packaged deluxe style in a gatefold sleeve housing two of those round black things that are slightly larger in diameter than the average willy. Three tracks to be had which is something you don't normally get with willies, have you ever tried to put a stylus on one of those things? Messy. The lead track is a sweet little lullaby-like thing with lovely cooed vocals and a dead relaxing xylophone/glockenspiel arpeggio thing going round and round, sending you off to the land of Nod. The other tracks are nice too, we're struggling to come up with a meaningful comparison here but it's very quiet and delicate sounding, I imagine this'd go down a treat at those 'morning after' times. It's quite comforting.
