D-Lite? Seriously? These guys need to wake up and smell the saki. I'm not harbouring much in the way of hopes for the solo effort from a refugee from a K-pop boyband, so let's see if he can make me eat my words. Nom nom. Well ****. The first track has much more about it than I had expected: very dramatic and quite mature really. Great rolling percussion and some fine orchestation which then brings in a squealing guitar. Okay, and the second track is pretty brilliant too. God damn it. Now we have a hard rock tune which is, **** it, the **** too. Where's that plate? Yeah, this is light years removed from K-pop. Really good stuff, for what it is, and a big surprise. Colour me surprised. Did I mention I'm surprised? I'm surprised. Surprised? So am I. Yum! These words need salt, though.

* My bollox! There's about as much folk on this as there is on a Slayer album!
