| This review was written by Steve Best, a writer for Cross Rhythms magazine in England. It was published on CR's website, and I have retyped it here verbatim. (I have added a link to the band to which Steve refers in the review.) |
| More bedroom low-fi Jesus skiffle, this time from 2003 and a six-track, although we are promised another full length opus this summer. Whilst the technology has improved markedly since his last outing, Moron's style could well still prove to infuriate and confuse many (much in the manner of '80s low-fi band Half Man Half Biscuit) which in a way would be a shame, as the lyrics and ideas behind the songs are pretty clever, for example on "I Still Love Him" and "Cacaphonic Symphony" which is hilarious, and the sleevenotes to each song are if nothing else painfully honest. But I think Moron is going to find this a hard furrow to plough, as the type of music he makes will have a limited appeal. Rating 6/10 Steve Best |
