Father Murphy - 8 Heretical Views

All the tracks from 2012's original 'Anyway Your Children Will Deny It' album are worked over. The original album, whilst not shy at all, is offered a plethora of possible new views from musicians selected by the band, whose remixes come in the same track sequence. The remixes here present a myriad of ways to re-interpret Father Murphy's cheerfully neurotic noise, and become true counterparts to the originals. The contributions are from relative unknowns; Happy New Year, W-H-I-T-E, Zulus, Thulebasen, YVETTE, Noel V. Harmonson, Black Dice and EMA. The general tone compares to the works of Black Dice, and the loud fun and a lust for experiment are obvious. The striking change comes from the added beats, pulsating tribal touch and freaky rhythm patterns; punktronica if you need a catchy new word. There is less noise, less rock music and in a sense this turns out to be a logical progression. From the dance smash mix by Happy New Year, via Zulus' electro-pop refix to YVETTE's industrial approach, the '8 Heretical Views' provide a quieter character equally well. The result is pretty fabulous.
