I on the other hand was lucky enough to find half of what can only be described as a gingernut in disguise. An oblong shaped no-namer, not your regular round Griffin or Arnotts kind.
Hmmm. Were these biscuits bought from an off-licence?
Nonetheless this half of whatever it was, left quite an impression. My only piece of advice to the manufacturers would be to give this baked good an IDENTITY. Dress it up a little! Make people see that there's something worth being discovered...
Which, tenuously as ever, leads me to prog doom disco act Chrome Hoof. As part of BBC Introducing (BBC's new music initiative) they performed a special session at Maida Vale studios in North London last night, filmed for Gilles Peterson's show on Radio 1. And there is no mistaking them.
Loud, grinding and glam, this 10 piece work their magic with fabric (see below). Incorporating a wide variety of instruments, violin, bassoon, sax, trumpet, guitar, keyboards, bass, percussion to create their menacing racket. Try Pre-emptive False Rapture , released earlier this year for more of a taste, or catch them thundering away at these UK shows in the next week.
Even though it looks like it.... no humans were poked with giant light sabers during the taking of these photos.
Bemused sequined moment?....
Use the force.... the disco force.
