Summary
THE MAGNETIC FIELDS Distortion (Nonesuch)
Feedback fans should start the year with this latest wheeze from chief Magnetic Field Stephin Merritt. Having previously produced the epic romance collection 69 Love Songs and more concise i, on which every song began with that letter, here the New Yorker makes every instrument apart from the drums feed back, including piano and accordion. The constant background squall doesn't detract from great tunes such as Three-Way and Drive On, Driver, though it doesn't suit jauntier fare such as Too Drunk to Dream. A timely stunt, but not the best showcase for Merritt's singular talents.See the full content of this document
