LAST LISTENED TO last week
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT fair
RATING
It starts with roughest drums you'll ever hear in rock (played by Bobby Gillespie, in pre-Primal Scream days). They're kinda lo-fi but with a mountain of reverb, as if it has been recorded in a dark, damp tunnel somewhere. The rest of the tune, well it's just lovely. The lyrics, the singing, the battered guitars, the female backing vocals. It's a crazy mixture of pop and avant garde noise that can have come as nothing less than a revelation in '84. Bloody brillant. Everyone who likes music made with guitars should have this.
