Free Music Review: Still great after all these years
Hit: 5 Stars

If James Brown had been a reptile and one of his biggest influences had been the alien bar band in the first Star Wars movie, he might have sounded the way Shriekback sounds on this excellent album. BNM is the best record that Shriekback made and is easily one of the enduring highlights of 80's pop music. Every song on the disc is first rate. The funk is funkier, the melodies more melodic than on any other Shriekback effort. The Shrieks simply sound more confident and assured here than they ever did before or have since. What I especially like about the album is how warm and organic the band sounds having abandoned the drum machines and sequencers of their previous albums. This warmth balances the overall detached approach of the band to great effect. Hopefully, BNM will begin to reap the recognition it deserves and will be remastered and rereleased.
