Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
If it isn’t broke, then don’t fix it, you can always improve and make the art just that little more special but when you have hit such a cool vein of expression that is distinctly your own, then the right thing to do is look upon it as a sign of confident passion and one when the time comes can be thought of the moment when you Put It Back Together again.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
Epics come and epics go, some will stand the test of time and others fall into the trap of becoming side-lined, browning with age, bleached in part by the weather streaming against the frames and forgotten, a dusty reminder of what they once stood for in the pantheon of music.
There are moments when the world, or at least certain people with decency in their hearts and the courage in their minds, is able to make a huge difference. There are many problems to be discussed, to be addressed and be solved, no matter how far we come as a civilisation, no matter the dizzy heights of industrial might, of reaching out beyond our mortal capability into the stars and the progress of technical know-how, people fall through the gaps. They become unseen, almost invisible, past the point of sight until they blur into their surroundings and whether it is through the actions of someone else or their own misfortune, brought on perhaps by a Government and others that just don’t care, the cracks open up regardless and the streets, the parks and the obscured shadows become the home of the dispossessed and the homeless.
