One More Grain – 'Isle Of Grain' review
If Underworld swapped their beats for jazzy drones, John Lydon reformed PiL with a Lancashire accent and Spiritualized got their hands on Mark E Smith and a shedload of uppers, they all might be close to appropriating One More Grain’s sound.
Fusing post-punk performance poetry with darkly textured, cinematic fusion jazz accompaniments that could have come straight off a Ninja Tune release, Isle of Grain is a perfect example of great English psychedelia, laced with subtle humour, imagination, intrigue and no little invention.
9/10
