Litterbug - Speaking Through the Gaps
By Music Dash - Webzine submitted
Former fellow seasiders, The Membranes, might not be happy with that, but already anyone having the guts to dig out an escape tunnel from the grimy, sea misted Vegas, situated on the banks of a large effluent discharge route, next to a Zoo with dead animals in it, deserves some credit. “Speaking Through The Gaps” is pretty basic stuff in terms of recording and production techniques. The female vocals haven’t been exploited well enough, often being left to emit feeble, whimpering “whoos”. But the singing is pretty good through the overall mud of the recording – the ideas are pretty dark and crammed with wall to wall fuzz. “A Simple Contradiction” is bulging with post-punk promise. Some ideas are obvious but well executed, but the often strange “Subhuman Scum” is reliably off the wall and all the better for it. Bucket and spades of promise...they may one day tower above us all, they actually ain’t no donkeys...a pier into the future...could be a golden mile ahead.... etc etc etc etc. You know the score. Worth watching.
