Further electronic mind-bending from erstwhile
Love Ends Disaster! string-tickler
Jon Dix. Still fond of a spooky synth or three from last release
Colours Seep Out, this latest step along the way sees
MYC having a serious dally with the 1980s. Check
Girls of Boredom, in all its I’m-a-single glory, with its electro-darkness and languid,
Oakey vocal. Or
Modern Easy, if you’ve ever wondered how
Blur would have sounded had they been influenced by
Depeche Mode rather than
Pavement.
There’s no obvious bandwagon-jumping, however.
Pre-Cert Landfill II could be from the soundtrack to an as-yet unmade
Linklater film, with harmonies courtesy of
Barrett and
Yorke.
Move Truck with Bitten Leg gets
Tortoise drunk before degrading gracefully into hallucinogenic mush. The whole is sprinkled with
Boards of Canada dust (MYC’s top MySpace friend, of course).
Unlabelled, unreleased and verging on the unparalleled.
