Named after a suitably scuzzed-up epistle by Nick Cave's former
breeding ground/alma mater The Birthday Party, but judging by the
sleeve image too young to shave, this Glasgow quintet take their
forbears primitive voodoo trash aesthetic twang by the scruff of its
studded dog-collar and let rip like The Stooges giving the Jesus and
Mary Chain what for. No luddites these elegantly wasted kids, mind,
because, while things get more urgent as things progress, the climax of
the mighty 'Miriam Hollow' has shades of the Simple Minds 'I Travel',
plus there's an entire bonus CD of remixes designed to scare yourself
in the dark with.
