Release Notes:

A fascinating release. The Foul And The Fragrant
evokes such sweet musings and remembrances of some
truly great bands that dont get mentioned here too
often, The Waterboys and Del Amitri. Not only are
some of the gorgeous, sublimely driving melodies of
both of these bands present here, but vocally the
band evokes the spirit of Mike Scott in a very
warmly endearing manner adding a rustic, almost-
folk-like charm to the proceedings. The heroic
guitar chords, thunderous, acoustic build ups add
much intensity and passion on every track. Even
though it shares nothing with it(that I am aware of)
the spirit of Ireland/Scotland wafts up throughout
"Dead In The Center"(which, btw, has a bonus video
on the making of the record). The Foul & The
Fragrant reveal themselves to be crafters of
unusual, yet vintage melodies, complex lyrical
subject matter, and recordings that are deceptively
simple but constructed with the precision of Swiss
watchmaker. Surely, will finish in one of 2006`s
very best - it`s that special
