Well, here’s something to blow those disgusting old calcified cobwebs off your brain. Forget retreading those same old tired neural pathways to enjoyment, and let this strange lot plough you some new ones. I’m not even going to try and define what The Bastards Of Fate do, except to say that the element of surprise is alive and well in this music, which makes Ariel Pink look like Gary Barlow. They’re rumoured to be making UK plans for 2013; but if that’s too long for you to wait, get the album here. Enjoy.
