Being 747
Swing Ball

This one bounces very hard. Dave Cooke is in declamatory mood and the mutant percussive backing suits very well. Everything about it is raw, sharp and even more disturbing than first impressions suggest. And they do suggest. disturbing. Infectious isn’t the wrong word either. Compulsive, addictive, paranoid and obsessive also approach the truth.


Magoo
We r synchronized

Stadium sleaze and slither from Magoo with space noises and big chords. Sounds like a very thin boy in dark make-up and a monster sound rig up front. Not an old duffer with severe myopia at all. Could be T Rex: The Nightmare. Jolly good. Punchy and staggering.
