Liar's Paradise
Reviewed by Brian Vincent McGovern
There are few albums we've reviewed in recent history, which we can honestly say are "all out weird." This is one of those albums. When you find the info sheet and see the name Matt Frantz, though, somehow you're not so surprised by the industrial noise that marches forth from the speakers. Spoken word spouts truth and thoughts that we'd rarely let escape our lips, yet usually ends up finding itself realizing ultimate Truth. All manner of electronic noises and tape manipulation are included here. In some cases, all that happens are added echoes, but in others, it may be hard to decipher the words. Yet, the emotion behind the writings is certainly conveyed. Besides, sometimes the fun is in solving the puzzle. To order, send a check or m.o. for $12 (payable to Matt Frantz) to: PO Box 31248, Cincinnati OH 45231
