‘Kabuki Spin’ sets things off nicely, as it is a piece of low slung chug with vocoders. VOCODERS! Or something similar. And this release is at its best when it goes down this path, as it does with ‘Dusty Rumble Fish’ and ‘Akira Danse!’. These tunes are far from being carbon copies of each other, containing enough respective idiosyncrasies to distinguish themselves from each other; often in the shape of detailed, synthetic flourishes all of which emphasise the “disco” rather than the “riot” or the “punk”. The title track is slightly different in that its edges are more polished and the consequential sonic veneer sharper. However, it’s all academic and ultimately adds up to an interesting release that expertly distills a whole gamut of sound through the aural Liebig condenser.
