Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2002-12-16
Pretty strange EP in that it starts off with an excellent noise piece, then comes at you with some chorusy guitar feeling stuff that smacks of the 80’s then just keeps going that direction. But its all fuzzy and way bent in places. What a trip. Distorted male vocs, guit bass drums devolving to synths and drum machines. Ultravox and Skinny Puppy Lite shaken, not stirred.

1) good sci fi’esque noise
2) noisy rock that smacks of Souixsie or Big Black with respect to chorused guit, new wave high style beat, but distorted vocals and swirling feel makes this bizzare and beautiful
3) new wave feel comes out, but its like old ultravox put through a meat grinder, awfully awesome
4) this one is almost straightforward 80’s, but distorted, strange
5) this one has an element of industrial dance goth to it
