Experimental in all the right ways, great songwriting, one of the best I've found on Jamendo. Thanks

First, I think mgushee pretty much nailed the description of this artist in his review...condensed as "George Thorogood on acid".

The more I listen to this, the better it gets. Great blues with psychedelic interludes. I don't know where the spoken word recording inserted into "Love 'n Fears" a couple of times came from, but it's a brilliant complement to the song.

While I love the whole album, the track that especially stands out for me is "Staphylococcus Blues". An almost 13-minute tune in three distinct movements, it begins with a standard guitar blues riff and great blues lyrics about the woman you can't get rid of... like a staphyloccus. Then the song suddenly transitions into the long and haunting second movement driven by two alternating notes as Dallas moans "She's running to me, coming thru my veins...now I'm addicted". Clean, spare lead lines (with lots of reverb) echo and a lonesome cello(?) and electric piano dip in and out thru this part of the song. The effect is absolutely captivating. Finally this section gives way to a bouncy upbeat final two minutes or so that wraps the tune up.

And, personally I love the way Kincaid's French accent delivers some of the lyrics (in English). All in all, you can't go wrong with this. Incredible music for free.

Hmm, well, musically it's great. If George Thorogood spent the weekend dropping acid and listening to Captain Beefheart, he might come up with something like this.

I'm not so thrilled by the lyrics. It's okay that they're cryptic--they really do remind me a bit of Beefheart. But a couple of the songs seem quite misogynistic, and the frequent profanity ... look, people just shouldn't use cuss words in a foreign language unless they are really, really good at that language. It usually--as in this case--comes across as pointless crudity.
