Comment: it is tremendous honour to be back at the discography of Dracula Horse, the American imprint of being closely related to Coolrunnings, a combo that had produced a bunch of outstanding contemporary psychedelic issues. However, Seppuku's 6-track issue of being embedded in a 16-minute is as great as well. It starts off with an abrasive electronic/synth-punk/new wave rant to stepwise evolve into more psychedelic and spacious appearances at will. The artist is dripping with dreamy guitars and dream-drenched synthesisers which used to have more in common with such space explorers as M Geddes Gengras, Oneothrix Point Never, Steve Hauschildt, Leyland Kirby rather than with die-hard post-punk ensembles. First and foremost, I am talking about composition called Ravine. And of course, all of that effortless aplomb leads eventually to remembering Tangerine Dream. In a word, that's an explosive yet bewildering miscellany of dance-appealed guitar chords, and reverie-induced keyboards, and suggestive propulsions. Top quality by any means.
