Cable, Sub-lingual sampler (Infectious promo) CDS
Q: Why aren't Cable massive? A: Becasue you aren't buying
their records. This had better change when the new album comes out. Or
else. There's five tracks on the sampler, pick of which are
forthcoming single "Arthur Walker", a pressingly direct version of the
Cable formula, less bendy riffs and more chorus; "Hexagon eye" is a
muted Pixiesish drone that bursts into a lurching spasmodic thrash and
"Honolulu" which tops the pile with its trademark off-tune interwoven
guitar lines, counterpoint riffing bass and super-solid beats. The
song crashes through the hard-soft equation with gleeful abandon, like
a hard-edged Pavement perhaps, although without the marketability that
comes from being American.
