Description:
Stephin Merritt has said that his aim in making the new record was "to sound more like Jesus and Mary Chain than Jesus and Mary Chain." Beneath the racket, though, not that much has changed in The Magnetic Fields modus operandi ... Again, Merritt`s meticulous orchestration of his sonics is what really impresses. A sense of how random sound can be organized into something so attractive that you barely notice the cacophony from which it is constructed. It`s a pretty record ... funny, too. - Uncut (Nonesuch)
