Reissue lp comprising the s/t 12" debut of Max Block (originally released by Flying Nun in '86) + unreleased material from 87-88. The core of Max Block were Brian & MaryRose Crook, who now propel The Renderers. Their sonic attack here was more of a seared mix of Pere Ubu & Mars, Southern Hemisphere style. Pretty great stuff.

moments of astounding beauty & surprisingly moving instrumental gems, somehow still mined from these seemingly finite and familiar forms. "gigolo" is the best bootlegged "vu"/"another view" outtake that the feelies never wrote.
addendum: for anyone hesitant to buy due to comments posted here in the past about fulfillment - i have zero complaints with this order. the wax shipped within 5 days and arrived in perfect shape 9 days after ordering. thx sb. cactus libre

Long-form trance-y rhythmic jams, with a fun shambling edge, sounding like a cross between music from Africa's Sahel region crossed with a Tom Waits instrumental... Jascha Narveson
