RinoceroseMusic Kills Me (V2) Rating: NNN Rating: NNN
Jean-Phillippe and Patou — the Keef and Anita of Gallic disco — continue to build upon their “house weez guitars” concept on Music Kills Me. They invited the touring band members of Rinoceroseto join in the composition process, so their joints now sound very much like songs rather than grooves with riffs. It may take another album or two before they summon the courage to break free of the 4/4 deadlock, but for now the added distortion and dubwise decadence go a long way toward treating their slickness sickness.
