		<description><![CDATA[Concocted by Serge Gainsbourg, the most exalted potentate of lust, this bizarre fantasy detailing a (the?) middle aged lothario&#8217;s affair with a teenager oozes priapic zeal, laced with a sense of humour that can only be described as goblinesque. Unusually for a concept album from this era the music has dated astonishingly well; produced and <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chimeramusica.wordpress.com&#38;blog=5075818&#38;post=1335&#38;subd=chimeramusica&#38;ref=&#38;feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A rare moment of staggering (sic) genius from the godfather of punk. Recorded after the Stooges broke up for the first time, the crunching tones of &#8217;1969&#8242; and &#8216;I Wanna Be Your Dog&#8217; are here eschewed in favour of a more melodic, bluesey palette, strongly reminiscent of Keith Richards in Sticky Fingered pomp. &#8216;Lucky Monkeys&#8217; <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chimeramusica.wordpress.com&#38;blog=5075818&#38;post=1299&#38;subd=chimeramusica&#38;ref=&#38;feed=1" />]]></description>

Peter Hook&#8217;s patented basslines, the Cocteau Twins gorgeous sheen, Johnny Marr&#8217;s cascading guitars, the Chameleon&#8217;s romantic melancholy, Felt&#8217;s sublime majesty. I&#8217;m transported back to the Panic Station, Dingwall&#8217;s monday nights&#8230;this is ecstatically brilliant and big thanks to Paul Ilechko for the tip!<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chimeramusica.wordpress.com&#38;blog=5075818&#38;post=1295&#38;subd=chimeramusica&#38;ref=&#38;feed=1" />]]></description>

Throw in a smidgen of Dick Dale and a respectful nod in the direction of the Cure and you might well think that you have a recipe for aural purgatory.

		<description><![CDATA[An absolutely furious recording. Drumming of splendid brutality embellished with cascading guitars and vocal harmonies that surely originate from a demented barbershop in hell&#8217;s deepest circle. In truth this record adds a degree of sophistication to the lupine oevre and in so doing subtracts nothing from the gleefully deranged experience that listening to Wolf Parade <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chimeramusica.wordpress.com&#38;blog=5075818&#38;post=1274&#38;subd=chimeramusica&#38;ref=&#38;feed=1" />]]></description>
