Yahoo! Music Album Review

 

Globo - 'This Time It's Globo'

(Thursday June 8, 2000 3:27 PM )

Released on 19/06/2000
Label: Hydrogen Dukebox

Globo's second album is dark and moody with possibly some of the weirdest tracks around - a mad melange of off-the-wall vocal samples, heavy beats, electronic flashes and dub.

The most unsettling track is 'Autosleeper', an uncomfortably strange beast which takes a long answering machine message of an increasingly annoyed old man unable to hear the caller and places his ramblings over a dubby bass line and eerie sounds.

It's not all doom and gloom though: '13' is chirpy by comparison as it sprints along. 'Breakdown', which is mixed by Meat Beat Manifesto, even gets a bit funky.

'Globo Conspiracy' is deep down dub done at it's best and 'Flirt With Fascism' flirts mildly with techno. This album is an excursion into the psyche that demands repeat listening to unravel the tangled web of human strangeness.
