Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
Love the skin you are in if you are able, cherish it even it is the hardest thing you do, and if it is not possible, if all the cards are stacked against you and you left holding the Queen of Spades and all the Hearts except the Ace, then grow a Second Skin, put on the mask if it is possible and throw a single finger up in defiance; nothing would make your enemies and detractors more mad and jealous.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *
For an album, a piece of recording history, to hold so much individual and seemingly disparate talent and turn it into a record such wealth and barnstorming enjoyment is either locked away in the recesses of the Rock music fan’s mind, ready to be spieled out in a lull of conversation in a pub one Friday night or actually physically existing in the form of Snakecharmer’s self-titled and cracking debut album.
