Somehow this combination made sense: a revised band (with Nic Potter returning on bass and the addition of Graham Smith, formerly of String Driven Thing, on violin) with a shortened name, and an album that was named twice, with different cover art for each name.

Written and performed at the top of Hammill's game, this album is a delight. ~ Steven McDonald, Rovi Read Less
