OK – here is a lesson to promoters. The press release compares the music to Brian Eno, The Residents and Fad Gadget and drops an allusion to Throbbing Gristle. I am a pretty big Residents fan and Throbbing Gristle is one of the top 20 bands that kicked the world’s ass in my opinion, so I was looking forward to this. However, it wasn’t quite what I expected. To paraphrase Senator Lloyd Bentsen, I know the Residents and Throbbing Gristle and you are no Residents or Throbbing Gristle. If you come looking for that, you will be sorely disappointed. So now we know what we don’t have; what do we have? I have to admit that I didn’t find it nearly as interesting as the press release makes it out to be. This isn’t really radio friendly, but adding a little bit of distortion to voice does not really make an experimental or an industrial album. I suppose that the closest comparison from the press release is the Residents, but without the kind of whimsical feel to it or the biting social commentary. (Plus, let’s face it – the music is almost secondary to the theatrics if you’ve ever seen a live Residents show.) The Bodies Obtained approach this feel in "I’m a Stranger" and "Skin Stuck to Bone." But if I had to come up with a better comparison for the press release writer, I would go with Legendary Pink Dots – somewhat accessible, but just a bit off, and a variety of musical styles on the album. This disc weighs in at around 38 minutes.
