Album reviews

The Humour Desk

Are those my shoes? — DJ Höss

If Auschwitz had had a theme tune, this would have been it. With melodious death rattles and Evelyn Glennie-style xylophones on human ribcages, listening to this album is like having a vivisection on your ears. Make sure to check out: Track 5 (‘Pole Tax’), and the bonus track, Dolly Parton cover, ‘Jew-lene’.

Thus Spoke Violence — Slightly Malevolent Being

Like being screwed in the ear by a Chihuahua on heat. With a tin dick. Only for the terminally masochistic.

Jenni Hulse

Straight out of Barnet — Middle Class Gangsta

BRAP BRAP! It’ll get all up in your face like a hooded bredren with a pocket knife, bling from Argos and a Dad with a Beamer. A sensitive passage about loving your Nan makes this a clear contender for the Mercury Prize.

And then God said, “Let there be shit music”.
