_Music is Rotted One Note_ - scary stuff. Not listened to it enough to decide whether I can add it my 'changed my life' list but the amount of effort thats gone into this LP is truly stunning. Lots of live drums, bass, Rhodes etc. Some of it is all over the place structurally where as some is a bit more groovy - the drum work and sounds are obviously Tom though, esp. where he drops some reverb onto occasional snares. Very dark and ominous at times but highlight (for me) is _My Sound_ this beautiful slow track that uses these cute chords and emotional guitar work over the top. The Stereolab LP on Warp (2xCD!) sounded pretty fresh from the listen I had to the first disc. Hardcore lab fans might have some of the tracks already but there's tonnes here. Musically no big departure - so lots of those Hammond sounds and whispery singing vocals. Thumbs up. || [CiM] || xxx_@xxxxxxx.xxx || - ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
