CD

Arriving via the West Country with a punk band background and a desire to avoid the use of other musicians. Teesside’s Marcus creates an aural assembly of sound from loops and lo-fi musicianship. Using a loose philosophy of record once, then overlay and release.

1 - Mind Numb

bizow, a good strong opening to the album with the deadly drums scything a path through the valley of the mutants, and some electrohawks scouting for energy, we must find the crystal.

2 - Bingo Beauty

looping guitar loops interface over a wave of backwards sound. for 2 minutes.

3 - Bad Vowel Movement at WP Primary

buzzsaw legend gary evans rubs his thighs into a bad eggfull of hornjazz while the master in command reports to the lord of the sea that there something going down in the neighbourhood. who you gonna call? frazz beat guides you to the exits.

4 - Paranoid Conclusions No. 7

wicked witches of the west run at you wailing like banshees from hoth and youre not sure where to go with this track, as its a bit 'aah' for at least 2 minutes then you think nicecupofteaandasitdown as a hovercopter slices down the forest enclave.

5 - Atonal Movie

retro cannon ahoy with this 2 minute cylindrical hammer blow to your pineal gland. its not too hot but its not too cold yeah.

6 - A19 South

acoustic guitar welcome in this escape from the usual electro, but each track is beginning to sound like a bridge as virtually none pass through the 2 minute barrier, the man soiled needs to develop the ideas more, rather than moving onto a new track sonny.

7 - Geoffs vrs........

buzz buzz buzzy noise ghost and arcade cabinet tunedrops enter from stage right and you battle them with your electro sword. then the zoom clicks in and you find the worms.

8 - Bonus Track: Mollage Congle (Offbeats Remix)

the second track on the album to actually brake the 3 minute mark and its a remix, quite a good one actually, noisey metal distorto guitar and squirly voice samples abound and the beats keep coming until the end of the show.


6.5/10
