UK: elemental. elm 9 / 20 tracks / 1993

John Peel might have been drooling over this one, to me these guys were just Sonic Youth wanna-bes with detuned guitars. And they’re not very original, either. Uninspiring “experimental” guitar noise. [5]

Ödes, uninspiriertes Gitarrengeschgrubbel, obendrein noch sehr unoriginell, da die wenigen interessanten Momente durchweg von Sonic Youth geklaut sind. Es reicht halt nicht aus, seine Gitarren ein bißchen zu verstimmen. Wenn schon klauen, dann bitte richtig (s. Flower).

Tracks: aroma of gina arnold / speeds exceeding / good blood after bad / rations / death to dead things / sun go out / bludgeon, elites & stagger / limbs / athlete who is suck / top of morning / lo priest / soar ossinaxx at long last / our doctors think we’re blind / fingers 6 steps ahead of our minds / la jolla my armpit / k-song / mindstab, forklift / to milktruck / bladder stomp: krautrock / the sad skinhead
