Reviews & Opinions

PUNKY GIBBON: Strange mix of new material and the whole of the first LP, the latter of which is expectedly better than the rest! However, the new stuff from 1993 is actually not bad: mid-speed punk/rock with a few faster tracks thrown in. Miro is better is being strident than sexy, though, and some of her breathy vocals are sort of laughable. 'In The Shadows' is a lovely psych number complete with sitar. A goodish disc, then, despite some boring numbers.

Additional Notes

The covers for the US and German pressings are identical. The US disc contains an extra song, 'Sex Dream', which is uncredited.
