Rotund For Success, by Severed Heads

Rotund For Success

by Severed Heads

supported by

Nicholas de Lioncourt (real) The 1980s, when my daily wardrobe choice was "... dark black with light black, or vice-versa?"

Already own every Severed Heads CD and MCD. All Saints Day, Big Car etc., could not pick only one from this release as a favorite. Indelible examples of late 1980s alternative (when alternative actually was)

(not on this release) "Goodbye Tonsils" remains a favorite.

c-squared Then: Wait, what's this? Singing? Rhythm? Did I get Pet Shop Boys by mistake? Ummmm but I'm liking it. Now: decades later, I can get it again on bc and save me from digitizing the scratchy overplayed vinyl. Fave is Big Car, including the intro. Favorite track: Big Car.

John Mentzer Like a surreal carnival ride after washing a vicadin down with MD 20/20, Rotund for Success is a wildly fun, sickeningly grotesque blur which you'll want to get back in line for again and again. Favorite track: Triangle Tangle Tango.

I love PW's style of techno that has all those quality sounds pushed up front of the mix. I find them to be high level, polished, and so very enjoyable to listen to. I really haven't heard another artist that combines elements that become thematic, "travelling" techno as musch as the late Mr. Western. Portis
