The four tracks on this EP are a bizarre collection of sound effects and radio recordings held together by little more than a drum machine and a sprinkling of good fortune. The good fortune Is the listener's, who could be forgiven for thinking this is Max Headroom in a frenzy. But singalongaMax it isn't - more a fascinating sequence of burbled and distorted nonsense. "Crash!" - an unjolly little ditty - stands out above the rest if only for its hypnotic qualities. The EP may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's just as good a start to the day.
4/5 (
