I've not heard the 12" (though it should be headed my way soon), but I
agree with the above on the DiM full length. Not only musically
"stacked" but, for some reason, I've been much taken with the photographs
on the cover. Best "photography as art" ;) photos I've seen on an album
cover since some Live Skull lp of *many* years ago...
The recent Lou Ciccotelli (the other bloke from Ice and the percussionist
in Laika) soul static sound 12" is quite nice - very organic and dubby
and tortoisey (though it doesn't really seem to go anywhere... hmmm...).
Actually, does anyone know anything of the soul static sound people?
They seem to have released a good deal of stuff I quite like (Tortoise,
Ui, DiM, The Sea and Cake, etc... [and some stuff I don't - like that
meandering Scanner 7"]) and, beyond a connection with Lissy's, I know
nothing else.
