Zoon Phonanta - Emergency Lies [LP Color Vinyl ]

Fearlessly inventive, Berlin 'psych-disco' trio Zoon Phonanta's 2nd album is an eclectic adventure that fuses the seemingly disparate into one easy ride. The lo-fi intro's a perplexing trap that soon gives way to The B-52's meets King Gizzard of Mantra Man, which resurrects legendary Berlin artpunk duo Cobra Killer on vocals. Then to the darkly Jaki Liebzeit-esque rhythm and Welsh-language sloganeering of Dim Diolch; to the hooky experimental synthpop of Run For Your Money (featuring Gemma Ray); to the hipshaking post-punk diss track that is Badcats (featuring the gothic Irish croon of A.S. Fanning); and to the hook-laden pulsing electro-noise disco monster that is main single Love In Entropy. This audacious album refuses to settle down. And without a guitar a sight! Vocoder-singing organ-playing drummer Zammit A.D., together with synth Techniker Fred Alert, and motorik bassist TNT Taylor, dig deep and big and bold. A1. Atlas Correction A2. Mantra Man (feat.
