SUNBURNED HAND OF THE MAN: 8 OUT OF 10 IN NME!
November 29, 2007Comments Off
“This psych-drone-folk digression was produced by Kieran Hebden aka Four Tet. Allowing Four tet to produce your record is like recruiting a third person into a relationship to spice it up: things will never be the same again. Which in this case, from the hypnotic freakout of “Nice Butterfly Mask” to the unnerving Zappa-gone kraut epic “Fire Escape”, is a very good thing” (8/10, NME)

“Serene sunset synth pootling from Alexis Georgopoulos, who used to be in the San Fran jam band Tussle, but decided to get to get a whole lot artier. In Light`s shimmering minimalism radiates fuzzily honeyed tones and if, thanks to “Odessey (for Bas Jan Ader)”, only one person discovers the work of the Dutch conceptal artist, then Georgopoulos` efforts will not have been in vain” (9/10 VICE MAGAZINE)
