5.0 out of 5 stars "orange groves in the lamplight halos", February 26, 2001

This review is from: Surf's Up (Audio CD)
... It would appear that someone is either about to be very confused, enlightened, or both.

I've listened to this latest David Thomas postcard three times through now and find myself enjoying it more with each listen; a truly good sign and an experience well known to all fans of Thomas, from solo projex to all things Ubu. Faves so far include the first track, "Runaway," "River," and the beyond-sublime rendition of "Surf's Up." To be able to walk up to the cd player and cue that up when the mood strikes is g-d gift. Thank you.

To top it all off, there's a new Ubu on the way in September.

5.0 out of 5 stars Motherless RAGE!, February 23, 2001
This review is from: Surf's Up (Audio CD)
Geography, ghosts, spiders and the call of the road. Another essential album from Mr. Thomas and friends. Although not as sonically dynamic as the last 2 Pale Boys studio effort "EREHWON," "Surf's Up" has a depth which is at once haunting and intriguing. This is DT conjuring the spirit of B.W. and "Smile"-era BBs. "Runaway" starts the album like a lost Pere Ubu classic; Brian cries in "Surf's Up", while "River" extends "Surf's Up" tale of lost souls. Not for the faint of heart, this album will reward adventurous listeners with a journey into David's "heart of darkness."
