Drukman) Steve "Blore" Howard writes: > Shriekback: Big Night Music For thematic complexity and musical innovation, I would nominate the earlier "Oil And Gold" album - where I consider "Big Night Music" to be a fantastic album, I consider "Oil And Gold" to be even better than that. For sheer lyrical inventiveness and musical skill, nothing can beat it. While "Big Night Music" carries on in the tradition set down by "Oil And Gold" it sometimes comes off as a pale imitation - case in point: "The Shining Path" is almost the exact same song as "This Big Hush" - not that "The Shining Path" is any the worse for it, in fact, I quite like the French bits. The main problem here is that once you've come out with something as radiantly perfect as "Oil And Gold", how can you follow it up? (or, how do you improve on perfection?) --jon drukman
