It's an entire paragraph of complete waffle. What's unconventional about electronic acts wearing robot suits again?

Perpetua certainly has the skill to rise above unchallenging verbal wallpaper; he's done it at least four times in his life. It's just too bad he zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

He honestly writes like an A-Level student, in a rush, who doesn't quite understand what he's writing about.

Matt DC, Thursday, 18 November 2010 11:08 (thirteen years ago) link

it's obvious that they are doing something sort of interesting.

They an use that on the ads. Glittering prose.

Leaving aside Perpetua, just want to say that I absolutely fuxx with this album.

It's a better headphones album than for the speakers. I wasn't feeling it for the first few listens then I gave it some time on headphones.

you could do a good playlist mixing this with Dust so it slowly gets more and more clubby.

however there is a slight Fischerspooner vibe that I'm still not sure about.

haha i feel that way about pretty much everything on bpitch control; it's good, though, in a way, to have a little something like that nagging at you

that perpetua review is barely literate

"a-level student in a rush" is a perfect description of it

tried this a few times before, but it finally clicked for me walking to work this morning. think it was the combination of the swooning dream pop side of "don't cry" and the crisp autumn air

This album isn't a convention-shattering avant-garde tour de force, it is the distillation of a specific aesthetic into its purest form. That excerpt (besides being about the portion of this I find LEAST interesting) seems to point towards Perpetua approaching this album in exactly the wrong way.

Basically I think this sounds like a warm, inviting Knife album, something I didn't even realize I wanted until I played this.

DJP para 2 OTM. Finally got round to hearing this, instant LOVE. Gorgeous spacey/bassy intricacy, which totally hits my spot.

totally. perfect for long journeys in the weather right now (in uk at least)

yeah this sounds so great on yr headphones while walking round in the cold

what i think is funny is that i do find the album unexpectedly soft and pretty, sonically.

its really grown on me since i 1st heard it, gotten a lot richer and complex

There is a new EP that I haven't got around to listening yet sadly

ha ha ha ha jack my swag (boxedjoy), Saturday, 24 September 2011 22:51 (twelve years ago) link

this is fantastic

dayo, Monday, 26 September 2011 00:49 (twelve years ago) link

based purely upon some sketchy memories of this thread i picked up the cd today (£3 special in Rise which used to be a Fopp).
once this heatwave is over, i can see this being a major playlister.
hits all the right spots for me ..

mark e, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 13:48 (twelve years ago) link

It's a real autumn-winter album, I could well find myself digging it out a lot in the next few months.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:24 (twelve years ago) link

^yeah, played it at new year's eve when i had some friends over and more than one asked what it was
didn't know about the new ep - thanks for the heads up!

Playing this now for the first time in maybe five years. Still sounds amazing on headphones. Whatever happened to them?
