Finally got time to check this album out after years of only having Dub Housing and New Picnic
Time (both amazing, NPT even one of my top 10 all time favourite post-punk albums).
This one here is even more strange and experimental. And I'm glad Allan Ravenstine (synths) gets
even more spotlight on The Art Of Walking. After some listens the album unfolds more and more.
Song ratings:
1. Go (4.1)
2. Rhapsody In Pink (4.3)
3. Arabia (4.2)
4. Young Miles In The Basement (4.0)
5. Misery Goats (4.7)
6. Loop (4.4)
7. Rounder (3.9)
8. Birdies (4.7)
9. Lost In Art (4.6)
10. Horses (3.9)
11. Crush This Horn (4.3)
Rating: 4.28. I still rate the album 4.5 because I love to listen the whole album, it brings me to
nice colourful and weird places in my mind (also the sound and atmosphere reminds me somehow of
the graphics in James Pond 2 Robocod, an Amiga 500 game).
I also found the song Arabian Knights, it's very similar to Arabia, just with David's vocals.
