Wd mainly go to the Peel session version - itchy, rinky-dink drunk in the labyrinth of the city, faces appearing and disappearing out of nowhere. <br /><br />But perhaps most of all it has that great Fall thing where completely dissonant, unintegrated instrumental lines, fracture, come together, in kaleidescopic variations, drops and rises in tempo, shot through with explosive releases of JUMPIN' JUMPIN' energy. And does he really say 'And when he comes, it's gotterdammerung'? Fantastic.<br /><br />Also, gtfo, IAKO is a fantastic album - reformation history + science-fiction at its finest, such a strange glittering shimmering groovy sound to it all as well.Fitzroy Cyclonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396638186390482168noreply@blogger.com
