Free Music Notes for Sex, Food, Death and Tarantulas
Free Music Review: Give It To The Venus Boys!
Hit: 4 Stars
I was tempted to give this e.p. a few less stars due to the fact I got a speeding ticket while listening to it yesterday, but that would be unfair to Robyn & the boys wouldn't it (it was during "Queen Of Eyes", one of my favorites, I guess I got a little too excited).
Anyway, this is a cool companion to "Ole! Tarantula", it contains the title track (same as the album version) and six live songs from the tour with The Venus 3 as his backing band. Amazing sound quality and performances throughout, I'd love to hear a recording of a full set from this tour, as they didn't come to my town (Robyn did, however, come through on a solo tour shortly after this and it was spectacular!)
Most surprising are a couple of Soft Boys tunes reworked here, "Queen Of Eyes" and "Give It To The Soft Boys", both awesome versions. If you dig Robyn Hitchcock and his oddball style of psych pop/rock don't hesitate on this one.
Sex, Food, Death and Tarantulas Poster
Sex, Food, Death and Tarantulas is the new EP from Robyn Hitchcock, the auteur of the highly-acclaimed album Ol?! Tarantula. It contains six live unreleased tracks including the Soft Boys classic "Give It to the Soft Boys," Hitchcock solo gems like "Sometimes a Blonde," and the Venus 3's "(A Man's Got to Know His Limitations) Briggs." Also included are two videos for "Adventure Rocket Ship" from Ol?! Tarantula--one live-action video and a wistful stop-motion animation rendering. In addition to the these extras overflowing from the Ol?! Tarantula sessions and tour, keep an eye out for a documentary profiling the psych-popster to air on the Sundance channel which will debut at the SXSW film festival.Pop Music CDs
