The Single

[nbc%INF.RL.AC.UK@mitvma.mit.edu]

Here's the review of The Sensual World from this weeks Sounds.

  Kate has often balanced precariously between Home Counties
  humdrum and absolute eroticism. Here she swings to the latter
  like never before, capturing the purity necessary to sex as
  worship. Talk dirty to us Kate: "Then I take a kiss of
  seedcake/ Go deep sex, go down." This is sex sucessfully rendered
  as the opposite of prurience.

  Abandoning the intellect for the intuition ("Stepping out of the
  page into the sensual world"), but craftily hanging onto the
  aesthetic perspective that mankind has spent so long acquiring,
  this is a lovely evocation of the moment.

  The way it encompasses the opulent production tech, instead of
  being overpowered by it, is crucial, as is the vocalising on the
  repeated "Uhhmm, yeah". A moment of meta-verbal magic in the
  tradition of Larry Blackmon's "oww", this is pop at its best.

There is also a page and a half advert for the single (also in NME
and probably the other papers as well) of which onw whole page is
a photo.

Be seeing you.
