4.0 out of 5 stars
Magic Stuff,
By Johnny Marques (Espinho Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Nation Underground (Audio CD)
Possibly not in the Top3 Cope albums(that would be Peggy Suicide,Saint Julian and World Shut your Mouth)but still quite a good record by one of England's top songwriters of the 80's,90's.First track 5o'clock World is a good opener ,containing one of Cope's best known lines "I know a place where we can hide from the human race".Vegetation is a cool sounding,smooth tune but Charlotte Anne is THE track on this album with Cope's voice at its prettiest making a compelling connection with Julian's usual instrument embelishments.My Nation Underground,the song,never struck me as brilliant but gels ok with the rest of the album.China Doll is yet another highlight with its sweet melody an enchanting pace.Someone like Me is faster and leads to the one track that still resounds the Teardrop Explodes'sound-Easter Everywhere.The pretty medieval tinged I'm not losing Sleep is followed by last track The Great White Hoax which ends the album in a nice way.A classic pop album worth checking out.

the space cadet rides again,
By Mark Lomas (Perth Western Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Nation Underground (Audio CD)
This deserves 4.5 stars really, but doesn,t earn a 5 star rating due to the drop off in quality toward the end. Although having said that, there's not many (any?) CD's that I can think of which could possibly carry on the standard of genius of "Charlotte Anne", "China Doll" and the like. Probably Julians most commercial work, it has been unfairly maligned for that very reason. I guess people need to consider the fact that commercial doesn't have to mean inferior (although it usually seems to), and I have fond memories of Julian and band on TV around the time of this. It is for this reason that I started to investigate Copey, and what a wealth of musical enjoyment that one clip opened up. Definitely out there, definitely worth investigating in any way shape or form, his music and/or writings will change the way you view the world and others. You may not agree with his views, but you will certainly enjoy hearing and deciphering them. Plus, it also rocks rather well. A good place to start for the uninitiated, but Floored Genius Volume 1 offers better value.
