SPK
Machine Age Voodoo
2.5 out of 5
Remember Xex? It seems to me that SPK heard, liked and decided to emulate that record but without any of Waw Pierogi’s or Thumbalina Guglielmo’s sense of humor.
It’s a little droning and repetitive and certainly not all that inventive (but, maybe at the time it was, I dunno). And it can actually sound a bit like Dead or Alive (but is that really who one wants to emulate? You do you, SPK)
At times I find myself really digging the drone and at others I think it’s a 5 years too late New Wave record that doesn’t realize the time has passed.
