TG channel Martin Denny, and suddenly gain the unique superpower to turn into an off-kilter minimal disco act on a whim. On the first side, in between the ticking keyboard beats, the band blindly feels it's way around a synth-vibrophone, making little poisoned butterflies to give you a break between pop songs. And then on the flip, the little blipping tunes are bumpers for noisy audience-baiting that follows pretty logically from their first two records. The whole thing comes to a sudden deer crossing for the stark bass thumps and pure mutilation of 'Persuasion'. Cd version adds a live show from right around the same time.
