Personally, I think it is one of the best things Tom Ellard has ever done - tracks like Big Eats, In Her Air, Mount, and Bullet piss all over 99% of what is released these days (and had he forgone the then compulsory 'industrial' spoken word overlays, it would still sound like the future).<br /><br />After many years of neglecting them, I finally got hold of the Adenoids 1977-1985 compilation box-set, originally released by Herr VoD back in 2008 and then reissued in a slightly different form on CD by Sevcom in 2010. Incredible collection, that includes some tracks on it from this album, amongst the sixty or odd others! For those youngsters, new to the "Heads" (as we never called them), I could not suggest a better starting point to the weird, wonderful, and occasionally disturbing world of the Severed Heads.<br /><br />On that note, I'm off to bed, I can hardly keep my dead eyes open anymore - #insert smiley smile emoticon#<br /><br />the saucer peoplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16680580618942851108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624282421125812337.post-80411505908884271312015-06-12T15:54:46.062+02:002015-06-12T15:54:46.062+02:00tom sells it here: https://severedheads.bandcamp.c...tom sells it here: https://severedheads.bandcamp.com/album/eighties-cheesecakeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
