Try this one on for size from the latest PBE mailout: $16 STACS OF STAMINA: Tivoli CD (WERK 001CD). "Bursting onto the scene like an over-inflated colostomy bag, Stacs of Stamina are the freshest, funkiest product out of Sweden since a 3-and-a-half ounce turd that Benny from Abba produced last Tuesday which finally made its way into the North Sea this morning. But forget for now the anal rectitude of Europop, this summer the Stamina boys are drunk at the wheel of a shiny new juggernaut hurtling pell-mell down the highway of music. Prepare, mere mortal, for Eurocrunk. And what is this mysterious new genre, I hear you cry? Yes, you've guessed it, it's another entirely imaginary genre of music that's taking the worldwide music scene by force. A mixture of crazy Euro lyricism and blip-hop over snazzy syncopated beats, Swedish production outfit Stacs of Stamina have here produced the definitive Eurocrunk LP of this century, and centuries to come. It's electronic hip-hop, Jim, but not as we know it. Arriving in the wake of their debut EP on Werk Discs, Mistake Rewind Repeat, Tivoli sees Stamina taking the unclaimed territory between hip-hop and electro by storm, with 11 tracks of crunked-up 8-bit hoptronica that will have even the most ascetic dullards swinging from the rafters to join in the digital love-making. And there's plenty of partner swapping on the mic, with superstars Mike Ladd and TTC adding guest vocals, as well as the latest MC 'on road,' Ears, all throwing their car keys into the bowl."

That's no 'review', it's a 'blurb'. Actually, it seems to transcend 'blurb' (or whatever the equivalent of 'transcend' is, going the other way), to the point where I feel it demands "another entirely imaginary genre" (sic) tag: Promobollox. alan --On 11 October 2005 16:19 -0600 Mantrakid <mantrakid@neferiu.com> wrote:
