Now I shouldn't be slagging off *my own kinda-people* but when I read this
review (on the Kindamuzik review page), I couldn't help but... Well, isn't
he saying it himself: should he be reviewing music he clearly knows nothing
about. Taking the piss? All the music on the record was very well executed
and in its genre was outstanding. It isn't rock and shouldn't be reviewed
withing those bounderies. It is experimental music. Well, then again I
listen to Noise records... and sometimes I ask myself "Hmm, maybe Prick
Decay is having a good laugh at us fans for digging that music.". :-)
Did you write this, Alex? Anyway a friend of mine emailed Jim O'Rourke and
he just said "Oh these kids...". :-)

I didn't even know they had this out! When I was in Japan, I bought Pedals
just based on Jim O'Rourke's production credits. I think Jim O'Rourke is not
only a great musicians but, man, he has produced some great records!
