Personnel: Tim Barnes (vocals, drums, triangle, gong); Seiichi Yamamoto, Masanori Takeda (guitar); Hiro Nakazaki (euphonium); Soichiro Nakamura (background vocals). Recording information: Peace Music, Tokyo, Japan (01/2000/02/2001). Arranger: Nagisa ni Te. On their fourth LP, the Japanese underground duo present another studio effort in the vein of their classic On the Love Beach album. Intricate folk ballads and lo-fi experimentation shape this recording into an elaborate pop affair. Calling to mind Kevin Ayers in its sweet naivete, this album marks a new approach for the Osaka group. Where stripped-back minimalism was the signature of three exquisite previous albums, On the Love Beach, The True World, and The True Sun, their simple arrangements are laced with a richer texture on this recording. Beach Boys, Robert Wyatt, and Nick Drake are summoned on these Baroque pop arrangements, while the candid lo-fi mood is still in still safely intact. The higher production standards only aid their delicate pop sensibility, adding further detail to their crafted folk-inflected pop. ~ Skip Jansen
