Dalmatian Rex and the Eigentones, We don't make toothpaste for
anyone else (Sorted) CD
Frank Zappa in a garage straight jacket, stuffed to the gills with
hallucinogens and suffering from cattarrh... would only sound about
half as skizo as Dalmatian Rex on this, their debut full length
release for Sorted (and their tracks on the "Brain cakes" and "Suction
prints" comps both appear on the LP). You get an idea of the sound
from the titles: "The encyclopedia of dental repair technology," "Born
to photosynthesise," "Teaspoons are the instruments of Satan," "Chicken
karma sutra" and so on. Sonically much like Gag at times, they have a
stop/start kitchen sink mentality, tricky wobblesome riffs, dirty
power chords, spoken word segments, Brussel sprout mantras---think
Beefheart and the Fall.
You know how they say that if you were to sit down in one place,
eventually everyone in the world would walk past? Well, if you sit and
listen to this over and over, you'll eventually hear a bit of everyone
who's done something interesting in rock music. 25 Oban St, Leicester,
