Editorial Reviews

Product Description

2009 compilation from the British Post Punk band. In 1980, Ted Milton threw down his gloves, picked up an alto sax and formed the instantly famous Psycho-Funk, Afro-Punk, No-Wave, Pogo-Jazz trio Blurt. A lover of wordplay, Blurt lyrics are dada ga-ga woven around some kind of derailed spark. Behind that spark is a literate and educated sense of nonsense. You either love Blurt or hate them; there's plenty of validity to both views. Minimalist guitar spews out repeating patterns of stark chords that function almost like a backing samba against Ted's incoherently belching screams and squirming sax, although at other times Blurt is at their most accessible, featuring lyrics that are actually decipherable and even hooks that are as catchy and memorable as any Pop refrain. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.
