I don't think he realises where you might be originally from.

It too recognise it from something.

It's, not for the first time, a bit Bovvie-esque.

It's quite The The, on reflection.

Last track - Vigilante.

Deffo going Compass Point-era Grace now.

Synth bass.

I bet that was the last track on the LP, and they'll be a filler one to end on.

Is this about Dirty Harold?

Slightly ahead of the late 80s trend for pop-music, possibly.

It has a decent melody to it, this.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Thu Mar 28, 2024 7:47 pm

It is over.

It had one or two moments of interest but, overall, wasn't an inspiring listen.

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

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Thu Mar 28, 2024 7:48 pm

I shall give it 2 stars.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Thu Mar 28, 2024 7:48 pm

Finished.

Well, that was entertaining enough.

Some ecclecticism and plenty of pretentiousness all bound up in an agglutinate of '80s production.

But, nonetheless, still entertaining.

Just enough.

Still wouldn't have a copy of it the house though. aristojar

I thought that was really, really good - other than the cover of School's Out - which perhaps should have been left out. I like "normal" Toyah" stuff and her typical quirky vocals and lyrics, but the synth (and string) production just made it all so much better!

4.5/5

Rounded up to 5/5 for voting!
