I'm in the mood to listen to little remembered second albums by mid ranking little remembered left field American bands who surfaced and joined the circuit in the early Nineties and I recall from my time in Germany from 1992 to '94. A fondly remember time. Of going to Cologne and Dussledorf. with my best friend from these times. Seeing bands at the weekend or during the week.Making a point of catching the support, Drinking and smoking as if there was no tomorrow.
Madder Rose's Panic On will serve the purpose for today It's their second album and came out in March '94. I was about to leave Dortmund and head out to Izmir, Turkey for an aborted sojourn with a job that never materialised before heading on to Warsaw as the snow started to fall. Panic On was recorded in Hoboken, New Jersey and has a poetic, arresting quality. A bittersweet essence which drew me back to the record throughout today. Essentially calming. An essential sense that everything will be alright.
