Vanquisher

by The Bob Lazar Story

supported by

Lee Lucas Sometimes quality comes in smaller sizes and even though many of the tracks along the album are very short they can still present with you more twists and turns than a cheap garden hose, a handlebar moustache, twisted candy, classic thriller and aunty Mabel's knickers rung out with her bare hands rather than a mangle.

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) It was a torture to live more than two years without new Foodstool stuff... but hey, we survived - some of us by buying all of the older catalog items, spinning around good old Foodstool. The reward for waiting so long is another fun-packed album with plenty of odd gems, created by the ever reliable Foodstool keepers Matt Deacon and Chris Jago. Favorite track: Section 8.

As it happens you can hear the full version of Hooves & Broken Biscuits on The Progressive Alternative #120.

Vanquisher is the seventh release from The Bob Lazar Story, a Trans-Pacific Partnership with roots in Liverpool.

Following on from 2017's critically acclaimed Baritonia, Matt Deacon and Chris Jago once again join forces and bring along a couple of guest musicians to create another collection of songs to make your brain dance.

This eagerly anticipated album contains some of the most densely packed arrangements so far, yet is contrasted with some sparser acoustic moments, creating a balance that could never be described as "too orangey".

This time with even more Foodstool.

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper

Blurring Into Motion

More or less I should text a praise quite similar to that for 'The Divine Abstract’. Well, here no multi-ethno insruments are listed; with exception of bodhran. But this album is as colorful as its precursor and i.m.o. reveals even more shrewdly balanced complexities, which again lead to feel peacefully perplexed or exited or (please don't laugh) "healed"; while & after listening. Fans of e.g. Oregon, M. Oldfield, yMusic or Bang on a Can's melodic works should check Charlie Cawoods marvels. ROWIAL

Ah, why didn't I buy this earlier? Has been on my wishlist since it's release and Bad Elephant Music's sampler and ongoing sales campaign luckily triggered the buy. Tags given are post-progressive and post-rock, but the music feels much lighter than I usually associate with those tags. Quite song-oriented, indeed. Great music, great vocals. Carsten Pieper
