The
Severin - Smith axis of The Banshees finally break cover with a
vivacious confection. Eminently preferable to the Gothic big band
swing of The Creatures' 'Right Now', this is a feverish concoction;
ignore the lyric, the words are nonsense; just listen to the noise.
'Like An Animal' sparkles. Whooshing swathes of
synthesizers and keyboards erupt colourfully and continuously; jangling
guitars peel away, mostly on the lip of the main action; the percussion
clatters with a nervous rattle that recalls Wall Of Voodoo; the bass
simply hums through the mix, playing a melody adapted from the
final vocal cascades of the Go - Betweens'. 'Cattle & Cane',
providing a challenging counterpoint to Jeanette's keenly pitched but
rather thin vocal. 'Like An Animal' provides the same kind of
spacious rush as The Bryds 'Eight Miles High' and races along with the
exhausting momentum of the pre - thunderclap climax of Love's 'Seven
& Seven Is'. Are The Glove the new West Coast experimental pop
art ensemble? Whatever: like all good pop records 'Like An Animal'
sounds like it's always been there. The Glove may yet prove
to be a real handful.

Punish Me With Kisses Lyrics | ||
Your morning smile of
torture holds me in it's grip This espionage is sweeter
now I write my name in
lipstick on the mirror as I leave |
