5.0 out of 5 stars postmodern classic, 18 Oct 2001
By A Customer
Salako are a very special band, make no mistake. Formed in Hull, England in the late nineties the group pulled together a mish-mash of seemingly incompatable influences to create a sound that was at once familiar yet disconcertingly odd. For those totally unfamiliar with the Salako sound, think Beck, think The Zombies, Think Stereolab, think crazy guys splicing gentle and surreal humour with a plethora of naggingly insistent melodies all married to songs that barely reach the two minute mark. No sooner has a particular song begun to burrow into your consciousness than its over and your brain is left confused but somehow richer.Great songs on this debut are too many to mention, best just to dive in at the beginning and let the music be your master..

After this album the band turned a slight corner with 'musicality' which saw the band reaping more critical plaudits whilst refining their sound further ditching the scattergun techniques of the debut for fuller explorations of the songs. It too was completely ace.

Even if they were to leave us only with this album their work would be done.

Buy, Buy, Buy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Top Quality British Psychadelica, 3 Aug 2001
By A Customer
If you're looking for a bright 'n' breezy album to chillout to this summer then you could do a heck of a lot worse than to check out the debut from this little known Hull quartet. despite the feeling that the band are being willfully perverse with their lyrics at times "if i were a duck or abear/then maybe i'd find some time or change to spare/to buy exotic dishes"!?, there some real gems on this album, most notably the opener "Each One Unique" and the strangely titled "Go On Then! Enlighten Me, Why Doncha?". Overall Then a good start
