Glitchy breaky stuff, drum'n'bassy sometimes... with strangely >intoned extremely-cynical vocals by Thrussel. Snog's recent 2 albums are most excellent, though the earlier stuff is a bit too.... Dunno. But _Third Mall From The Sun_ and _Buy Me... I'll Change Your Life" (w/ killer cover of "Make the Little Flowers Grow") are extremely hip. The newer one (_Third..._) is a bit more glitchy and what-not, so should have a bit more IDM appeal, though the former set the pace. His work as Soma is excellent, in a worldy way...similar possibly to early Muslimgauze. >OK, so not perhaps "listenable" vocals - not commercial radio fare by a long >shot! But still. Yeah...not nearly the crooning of Lidell, but still fairly good. Plus with definate anti-capitalist overtones, thus giving them more substance than Lidells. BTW--Koala fans...he takes up the turntables twice on the new Handsome Boy Modelling School release. --- Peace Hugs and Unity Jason J. Tar W. W. J. D?
