For his first solo-album proper after leaving anti-vivisection industrial project Skinny Puppy, Key's gone back to such ancient equipment as Casios, '80s rhythm boxes, Moogs, ARPs, and Buchla Boxes to render these sounds flesh. Perhaps all of those sounds are coming fresh out of Key's sampler, but the compositions he has woven out of them on CATS reflect an affinity for their Luddite charms. These aren't songs so much as experimental didactics fallen off the deep end. "Meteorite" is a raining shower of blips, burbles, squeaks, squirts, and squelches, all choreographed to the inner clockwork of a rupturing universe. "Inside Jam World" features the beatnik narration of Genesis P. Orridge (late of Psychic TV), who spouts fuzzed-out rhetoric over boiling cauldrons of synths and mild, power-plant cacophony. You can find relief, however, during the space-walk blitzkrieg hop of "Go Go Boots", which is like Cluster being crushed in a diode-pressing plant. Like Wonderland's venerable Cheshire, CATS is sure to leave you grinning mischievously.
