Musically, the album is eclectic, mixing the gunslinging rock on the 'Stallion' to the Latin feel of 'Sauerkraut Bossa', which combines a cheesy electro-lounge rhythm with organ washes and yet somehow you are hooked. 'Slav to the Rhythm' updates mid-period Bowie with a slick lyric that morphs into a a driving fuzzed conclusion that would make the Tin Machine blush....and Lyndon Walker of Rip it Up...
With lots of soft melodies, mellow synths and a sound which is part Phoenix Foundation and part his own, this album is a great listen from beginning to end...Any Aucklanders who happen to be reading this blog should be aware that Buda is playing up at the Kings Arms this Saturday (8th April) with SJD, and for us Wellingtonians, more gigs are apparently in the pipeline.
