Spring has sprung. It Starts With a Birthstone can officially proclaim. DISCOMBOBULATED from Hen Ogledd has landed for ousisders and refuseniks to pretend that they are a tree or fish ir whatever it is they wish to. In the words of The excellent Guardian review: 'What to do when the word's falling apart ? Take to the streets? Run to the hillsThe latest album by this British folk-rock quartet suggests that a blend of fantasy and realism can provide a better way of living.'
DISCOMBOBULATED is the gentlest and most regal unravelling. The album is certainly barmy . But frankly, aren't we all. We have been since childhood amd here is a record that recognises this better than Boards of Peace which break International Law and seek to oppress, divide. The centre cannot hold as the adage tells us. Perhaps the margins can.
This is certainly a good place to start a Saturday morning. Bard Rap (in Welsh when it chooses) apparently decrying capitalism and celebrating grass roots resistance. Hen Ogledd are pitching their tent and inviting you to join their pagan happy hour.
