The third album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a ten pieces big band with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, strings, keyboards, electronics and woodwinds.
This band, one of the strangest bands I have ever come across as a reviewer, continued on with releasing albums on this Virgin Records sub-label. A sub-label run by Brian Eno. In other words, we know what we get on this album...
This fifty minutes long album is a chamber neo classical music album.
Both Aranis and Flairck is good references here. Brian Eno's minimalism is also something this band follows. Something I have noted in my reviews of their first two albums too. The band has not deviated that much from those two albums when it comes to this, their third album.
There are some jazz inserted into this chamber music and that is the main difference here.
The music is decent enough but it never really lives up to the expectations set by the cover art-work and the name of the band.
If utterly weird but still meaningful pretty melodic music is your thing, check out this album.
