"Ape In Pink Marble is a subtle proposition, but an intriguing one. The album’s title – perhaps a nod to his parallel life as a visual artist – suggests a studied surrealism and oblique personal expression. Its songs can be divided roughly into two camps: faintly funky frivolities and sad, late-night reflections."
Unapologetic gushings of a musical nature. On the records that have shaped my tastes, are currently rocking my world, and will take pride of place in my collection for years to come. Live reviews, profiles and features. Psych, soul, funk, punk, alt-rock, soft-rock and a whole lot more besides.
