Locking yourself out of your blog is as embarrassing as locking yourself out of your house. I forgot my password and got into an endless circular process with Blogger and Google which left me feeling I couldn’t be bothered. Till now.
I heard this back in November. I had been an admirer of Gorki’s Zygotic Mynci (though not uncritically), and I had been wondering what Euros Childs was up to these days, when he released his latest LP as a free download. It is brilliant (mainly – I found the instrumentals “Fairy Feller’s Master Stroke” and the various parts of “Harp” a bit boring). Childs’ surreal imagination is undiminished, often very dark beneath the apparent jollity (as in “Sitting Gently All Around” and “How Do You Do”). Even better are “My Baby Joy” (but don’t expect something joyful) and the wonderful, bittersweet one-minute love song “Mother Kitchen”.
