Review

As one of Bologna's best kept jokes, Shijo X juggles up Bristol and London beats from yesteryear. The rather incomprehensible words are prone to confuse the mind. I dread to fully dismiss this album since several breaks made me ponder. On 'Runnin'', a rather strainful non-melody, just about get rescued. Whilst on 'Colors' Shijo X sounds equally disorientating like those Bulgarian Choirs on 4AD back in the day. Silly nonsense this.
