...disconnection between Thorn's dreary vocals and Watt's creative instrumental mischief is intentional to achieve a wasteland acoustic for Watt's sensitive lyrics. But, no. The only piece that holds up is "Five Fathoms," and that's because it's the first time you hear Thorn. From thereon, Watt's clever intros are continually hijacked by Thorn's living-deadpan delivery. "Compression" is a joy for being jungle-smacked and free of her (except in adulterated form). Temperamental is really Watt's project after the last three years of underground DJ-ing. The girl makes it quickly tiresome...

...chief's literary ambition that prompted Bigam to examine the ribbon in Wiley's electric typewriter. And thereon lay a tale. Wiley had written someone a most revealing letter. "Where I've gone," he typed, "is of no critical importance and it's very doubtful that I'll ever return . . ." Just 16 days after the disappearance, Bigam issued the sort of announcement that might have been found in a whodunit by Agatha Christie (herself famous for a never explained ten-day absence in 1926).
