Aereogramme

Glam Cripple EP

Label: Chemikal Underground Release Date: 30/10/2000

12019
jmoore by James Moore October 30th, 2000

**The pioneers of Stink-core release their debut on CU in the form of a

limited edition EP**

Aereogramme start their Chemikal Underground career with 'Fuel to Burn'

sounding like a contest between Godspeed and Ligament it's

the perfect introduction to what become the perfect EP.

The band aren't just about riotous noise as they show on the next two numbers

**'The

Ocean Red'** and 'Fireworks'. Both are proof that Craig B is probably

one of the most talented songwriters in the UK. If 'Fireworks' doesn't have you

on the verge of crying

there's something very wrong with you. His wobbly vocals are backed up by

minimalist music with his acoustic guitar being the only instrument for the

first minute, later on freestyle and programmed beats are added.

Gabriel's 13th dream remix of * 'Fireworks'* was described by Craig B as

being "an incredible remix" and "not some shitty add-on" and

he wasn't lying. It's a completely new song, treading the electronica

path with the likes of Tarwater or Magnétophone.

If your gonna buy this you'd better be quick though as there's only 2000 copies
