Formed in 2007, here is the long awaited debut from Joy Division/New Order guitarist Bernard Sumners new band. It was worth the wait. New Order keyboardist Phil Cunningham comes along for the ride and gets all the writing credt here. The first single and video of Sink Or Swim has been out for awhile, but you wouldn't know it by watching any of the video channels in good ole America where pop rules the video airwaves. There was nothing on here I could say I didn't like, so it was tough picking a worst.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

George Crumb - Voice of the Whale

- quite strange - but a good strange - must listen to more of this guy's stuff.

( I'm sure I used to listen to that Prefab Sprout album years ago - must find it again and see if it still sounds good)

Sun City Girls - Tarmac 23 from Torch Of The Mystics [Tupelo Records, 1990]
Quote:Torch of the Mystics represents the pinnacle of the first phase of the Sun City Girls. A concise, pinwheeling album that captures the band's pure commitment to emotional transcendence through music, the 11 songs here fly off into the netherworld of ethnic avant-garage rock with startling clarity. The band had never fully explored the Middle Eastern tones accumulating in their brains as they did on this 1990 masterpiece, nor had they been as clearly and smartly recorded as they are here...Every track contains a shimmering melodic phrase or haunting undertone that the Girls mine like pure manna, and the occasional bursts of delirious chanting still summon goosebumps on the listener's skin. Every argument made for the greatness of the Sun City Girls has its roots in this platter...

^ What do you think of the album, dude ??

It's sitting on my shelf waiting to be spirited away by Santa for wrapping, and I haven't been allowed to play it...

It has its moments but on the whole it's not a quarter as good as At War with the Mystics.
