4 stars A modern "Art-rock" album, characterized by the incredible excursions of Levin and Bruford, 1. Elephant Talk you remember the TALKING HEADS bomb, yes the sound reminds me of it; an avant-garde sound with a jerky rhythm, a sound with the trumpeting of an elephant that deceives well... immense tribal bass, a Frippian guitar solo, skinned alive which tumbles 2. Frame by Frame with this hypnotic sound, still jerky, tumbling notes, a heady riff, in short Adrian gives the impression of another group with his voice; the unfolding of XTC somewhere too; how can they keep these notes without making a fake one? tin tin tin tintin tin 3. Matte Kudasai for the most beautiful spleen sound you die; yes these notes which surf on a whale cry, for those who have dived in company, a title that flows naturally, the title which vibrates, which takes turns and which takes you on a road, take that of 'Donnie Dark' that would be great 4. Indiscipline smells of improvisation, bass searching for itself, Bill sharpening his drums; Robert Ben we hear the characteristic, schizoid sound; Adrian speaks, cool that and then bam Bill's devastating fury is completed with the guitar swirls... I repeat a certain number of times, crazy this title, the finale has strong hints of the CRIMSON of yesteryear so we can't delete everything, I like it!

5. Thela Hun Ginjeet for the title mantra, there it is said; the guitar sound that I also felt on BOWIE's 'Ashes' we won't repeat; it's hitting everywhere, XTC again for this research, ah the strings are squeaking... for the mantra it's going to be hard, metronomic this title; Tony goes there with his Chapman it hits, it rhythms even more, the trance cannot escape, the drool begins to flow from your mouth 6. The Sheltering Sky hit at TALKING HEADS again, I too am starting to be invaded; good djembe and rhythm guitar to continue the trance state or how to create a sound, a particular universe? hold this sound which comes from nowhere, another synchronic experiment, the more the air advances the more the notes are drawn to the limit of sound, when the beauty could become distressing, the perception which finalizes to keep you still present 7. Heady air discipline, with bass and Frippian guitar; after the mantra you have the discipline to move on to this tune which punctuates the metronome, incredible how we risk being invaded by these burst sounds which arise on this title and form a hypnotic repetitive tune; rises with the rhythm which seems to accelerate, but perhaps it is just the air which invades our ears, ah this Robert a true prodigy confirmed apprentice master and great guru on this strange album
