The Twilight Circus keeps the show on the road with fresh tracks completed before his fall '98 tour with the Legendary Pink Dots. In the numbered CD with the individually handmade cover drawings, the Circus' classic organ-filled dub-reggae skank returns in the forms of "Kik," "Bord" and "Dance" (with its hint of Black Uhuru's "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner"). And in a move similar to the dub process in reverse (i.e. versions to songs) a melodic guitar element has arisen, Durutti Column-like in "Romy," "Horsie" and the shoe-gazing track "Oats." And what happens when the horsie eats the oats, stylistically speaking? You get the ultra-trippy circular guitar/synth patterns of "Carousel," which one-ups the Dot's Mimir tribute to Krautrock in a mere three minutes and fifty-one seconds. Someone alert Julian Cope. |
