THE BLACK HEART PROCESSION
2 (Touch & Go)

Reviewed by Jason Thornberry



Still waiting for Ben Folds Five to save you? Sorry. Not going to happen. They broke up. The band that openly slagged The Cure off will be lucky if they ever have musical careers that last as long as even Robert Smith’s limo driver. They’re off to a really bad start, so do you mind if I recommend another group who use keyboards, and piano, and even a Wurlitzer too? And a pump organ, clavinet, moog, toy piano, a trumpet, And a saw. I’m serious. That’s what the cd jacket says. A trio not afraid to be completely original, and perplexing to the people who like their "indie-rock" neatly labeled and compartmentalized.
