Sorry George, it's a bit late to be imploring Him to bless this fish of an album.

Or perhaps it was the proverbial 'Curate's Egg'.

Good in parts?

Yes, but only in parts.

Fleeting parts.

That was all quite awful. There was aspects I could have liked, namely the quintessential synths and drum machines, but it was all over the place, with no true.... well, nothing to speak of really. And the tracks were ridiculously long and weren't worth it.

1.5/5

Rounded down to 1/5 for voting.

I'm sure I remember Computer Games and Some of best Jokes are Friends were better.

It did sound a bit chimp like. Almost like it was laughing.

It's actually a small drum - like a single bongo or conga - but with a strung wire that's threaded right through the centre of the skin and that can be pushed back-and-forth, thus creating the monkey-like whooping sound via friction that resonates through the drum's cavity.

Cultural appropriation alert.
