The Late BP Helium - Amok - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Late BP Helium is the alter ego of Bryan Poole, who has spent the last eight years playing bass with bands like Great Lakes, Elf Power, and of Montreal. With the of his first solo album, InchAmok,Inch BP strikes out on his own. InchAmokInch is all over the map; an intoxicating blend of 1970's styled rockers, avant garde jams, and straight up poppy goodness. The album kicks off with InchBelief System Derailment ScenarioInch, a jagged, spastic horn-fueled attack, perhaps the album's weirdest and most sonically interesting track. InchBluebeardInch comes next, a poppy, Kinks inspired track filled with melody and charm. The album just gets more diverse from there, with funky sing alongs (InchCandy for EveryoneInch), extended Kraut rock jams (InchThey Broke the Speed of LightInch), and ending with a ripping post punk rocker that includes a baroque, orchestral interlude(InchRaisa RaisaInch).
