An exercise in multiple facets of split personalities in the gentle
form of story telling for a diary. Insightful with a few twists.
Simple yet complex that will not let aside indifference. Reflecting
but humorous, sharp and sensitive, pathetic and dramatic. A comedy
on human ideology, ideality and personal values. Not to be taken
too lightly. An easy but slow reading to appreciate the intricacy
and, for the astute reader with a detective inquisitiveness, not a
mean way to come to detection. A mirror of the sort - the act of
self-destruction - a search - a simple love story.

Dubbed-out cosmic pastorals and politically exasperated techno-exotica from Blackest Ever Black's most secretive and shape-shifting project. Guest contributors include Conrad and Jonnine Standish of HTRK, Genevieve McGuckin (These Immortal Souls), and Lucas Santanna. The ghosts of Les Baxter, Rowland S. Howard and Nina Simone are also in attendance. But whoever is pulling the strings remains hidden...possibly in plain view. Structurally Wreck His Days recalls the grand collective statements of This Mortal Coil or Massive Attack, but musically its dreamlike overtures have more in common with Deux Filles, Global Communication, Arthur Russell, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Anthony Moore, even Robert Wyatt circa Old Rottenhat/Nothing Can Stop Us. It roams far and wide: from the lambent, near-Balearic piano loops of the title track, to the Audrey Horne-worthy death-jazz of Ghost From The Coast , and hulking, bass-heavy soundsystem weapon Reverberasia . Side Two opens with the swelling, uplifting astral psychedelia of ...And I Tried So Hard , while I Beat As I Sleep As I Dream reprises the bleak existential synth drift of T.T.W.F.U.'s extraordinary 2014 10", How Great A Fame Has Departed?. A deep-seated socialist impulse drives the whole thing: with a dedication to women who have fought oppression throughout history, references to the Spanish Civil War and the UK Miners' Strike, and an overarching belief in the international ideal (in fact the closing Rosa / Kollontai explicitly invokes the Internationale). Written and recorded over the course of 2014-15, Wreck His Days is a plea, or perhaps a requiem, for a world that embraces difference and upholds equality. Its contemporary relevance hardly needs emphasising.
Love takes many shapes and shades in The Complete Peanuts:
1991-1992. Charlie Brown's interest in the Little Red-Haired Girl
is rekindled; Linus fails to impress Lydia; Sally hoorays for
Hollywood; Marcie pines for the World War I Flying Ace, who becomes
lost in his cups (of root beer); Peppermint Patty and Marcie try to
make Charlie Brown choose between them; and Snoopy is dangerously
obsessed . . . with cookies.
