"Savage Skulls" is the first new entity to emerge from Richard Sen And Neil Higgin's Padded Cell in over a year and represents the start of a devilish new chapter in their sordid career, a taste of what is coming on their "Night Must Fall" (DCR72) album due in May 2008.
Following on from their triptych of 12" releases for DC Recordings - 2005's "Signal Failure" (DCR64), 2006's "Are You Anywhere?" (DCR67), and 2007's "Moon Menace" (DCR76), "Savage Skulls" is a powerful dose of 80's New York style electro funk that will possess listeners of all persuasions. On the flipside we are astounded to be able to present a remix by DC label overlord DEPTH CHARGE. This is the first appearance made by the shadowy J. Saul Kane in his Depth Charge guise since 2004's "Hi Voltage Man" (DC51), a lengthy hiatus in which we can but speculate upon his clandestine activities, only that we are sure of one thing - his sonic powers are undiminished as evidenced by this ferocious scramble of electro fury, a reworking of "Triple X Syndrome" which is a forthcoming track that features on the "Night Must Fall" album and features vocals from Chloe, singer from London punk funk band Battant (Kill The Dj). |
