Five Or Six - Cantame Esa Cancion Que Dice,Yeah,Yeah,Yeah (1982)


Big props to Urban who introduced this Post Punk release to me. Their is barely info on the net about this band so my background knowledge is sadly lacking.

This album is a compilation that consists of mainly unreleased/ B-side tracks but it is so experimentally brilliant. Strange instrumentals, atmospheric atypical lofi post Punk tracks, a horn solo here and there, electronic rhythms and a genuine sense of talent and uniqueness have quickly made this album one of my favourites in the relatively short time i have had it.

Lost Cause and Chalk Circle are highlights for me. At times incredibly cohesive and at others it just wanders around aimlessly like an old drunk deciding where to go. This IS a good thing though. No youtube vid's for this extraordinary band either. That's what i call cult music.
