A restrained country waltz-type outro...

Completely new singer.

Vocals mixed completely differently.

Now I can't hear the singing without an Anthony Newley 'c*ckney' accent. bawl

They look like you'd imagine them to.

It is over.

It was an intriguing album that ploughed its own furrow.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

Sorrow.

Which isn't even a David Bowie song.

Anyway, that was GR8, thanks Wendykins!

Well.

What can I say?

Probably one of the more/most surprising/surprisingly good records we've ever done.

A very immersive experience replete with not-at-all heavy-handed genre/cultural splicing.

Genuinely quite excellent.

Wendi's been mean with her score so I'm left with no other option than to give it top bananas.

It's not often that I hear a band who confound and surprise me in quite such a pleasantly surprising manner.

I will be investigating this band's repertoire further.

I second this.

In a time of gert cynicism and vicious backbiting (gratuitous tl;dr comments for example stare

) and when we're all in mourning for Queen Bridget McClusky I of Graynge Hyll etc... blah blah

Thank you, dear Wendi-Pops.

Even though you probably never intended it, this choice of commentary have brung s*ccour to two atrophied, profoundly elderly - practically dead - souls this night when yesterday London was weeping as a Boing! C-17 Globemaster courageously carried a curry to a cash and carry in Colindale.
