"This album makes me really angry. The whole concept of this music is to evoke the "primitive" lifestyles of the "savage" peoples of Africa. The title of the album, "Ritual of the Savage", exemplifies so perfectly Les Baxter's ignorance towards non-Western cultures. HOWEVER, this music is just so ..." [+] Reply
"Kevin Coyne who carved out mythological stories of pathos. His vocal style was a rough kind of grumbling reminiscent of Captain Beefheart and his arrangements were spartan and bizarre. 'Marjory Razorblade' consists of a series of stories of alienation, insanity and alcholism. In the heart of Coyn..." [+] Reply

"Sting takes some big chances on Brand New Day. Older acts that attempt to fit into popular music rarely succeed but Sting's fame rose from the singles here for a couple years.
