More Info:
Recorded in a series of Los Angeles studios from January 2004 with legendary producer Tom Rothrock (Beck, Elliott Smith, Coldplay), The Warlocks' new album Surgery is both more accessible and more vulnerable than their acclaimed album from 2003, Phoenix. An otherworldly, subversive soul record, it has a ghostly grace which mixes soothing sci-fi lullabies with their trademark characteristic rohypnol rock-outs. Mute. 2005.Reviews:
"Sonic space age doo-wop!" enthuses Bobby Hecksher about his scruffy new hybrid of wall-of-fuzz guitar feedback sworls, delicate girl group melodicism and inexorable Velvets-gone-krautrock drone. Alternate description: slow tuneful noise, with feeling. Inspirational verse: "No one makes me feel like you do/ It's just like surgery."
