Snogs last full-time-album beyond the valley of the proles was a brilliantly placed shock for many of those who filed david thrussells project under just-electronic - thrussells reference to artists such as lee hazlewood or leonard cohen polarized and proved snogs unpredictable creativity. and listeners reactions on the seven all-acoustic travel sickness tunes was even more surprised at......while were talking about this one here. yes there are also eight brand new acoustic tracks, live from the verandah - well-hidden on the cd in mp3 format. the fourteen songs you will find in the regular audio-cd section show thrussell and his companions (such as c.peirce / end, sir real, ubin, the namshub of enki) as masters of amplified sound - is it electro (crash crash), is it the trashmen (on the rise), is it one of these rock numbers only snog can do (destroyer)....? indeed it is, amongst others. slide guitars are hit by shuffle-beats, long forgotten tekkno-anthems are drowning in a sea of breakbeats, bombs will be dropped... and whos singing on that track, tom waits? for no one... digipak packaging.
