John Foxx and the Maths – Howl

A bit late.

I received my copy of Howl last Friday – two days before my Birthday.. which would have been great timing if I hadn’t expected it back in March..

 

Managing Expectations

Based on the tracks I had already heard: Howl, and Tarzan and Jane Regained, I wasn’t expecting much.. (even after 10 plays, I still cannot stand TJR). I have to admit that Howl (the song) has grown on me.

So it was with some trepidation that I removed the Ian Boddy CD and inserted my latest purchase into the CD player.

Revelation

But what a revelation this is! It’s nothing like the previous JFM albums (they all had more tracks, for a start 🙂 ) – John Foxx with guitars.. Foxx is actually listed as playing guitar.. WTF?
