CD Reviews

"Do it yourself" spirit at his best
Joćo Barroso | Lisboa, PORTUGAL | 10/24/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"What a delicious "melting pop band"! These guys have some of the best musical influences... from the primary sounds of "Young Marble Giants" to the sweetest noise atmospheres of "Yo La Tengo"... always keeping simplicity as rule number one! However, in spite of the "8 Track Sound System" seems like a domestic release, the quality is absolutely great and controlled, sometimes dressing a distorted low-fi style, others producing crystalline sounds of toy instruments. We can hear voices, bells, clapping hands, drinking glasses, birdsong, hair dryers, lighters, spinning tops, skipping panda bears, rulers, hammers, televisions, turntable scratching, all captivated with a singular PZM microphone (invented by themselves, I suppose). The final result is an exciting and very creative record! This is the kind of record that inspires "music addicts" to start or to improve to make good stuff... and something really new!"
