(Skint) ***
OWING as much to Terry Farley and Arthur Baker as Primal Scream and Funkadelic, the Lo-Fidelity All Stars promised much, delivered a fair bit and set a few worlds on fire back in their late-90s infancy.
This best of set rounds up early Skint singles and choice cuts from their two albums to date.
Vision Incision still cuts a rug like a knife, while Blisters On My Brain is tuff enough to cause flashbacks to those who spun their synapses into outer space at the time. Pigeonhead's digital alchemy raises the Seattle band's Battleflag high and kicked open all manner of stadium rock doors in the States.
New track Northern Stomp shows they still have something in the tank and now that Go! Team, Klaxons et al have got 'em dancing again, who knows what next for the Lo-Fi's?
