Along with this kickin’ new tune from Times New Viking came a very tongue-in-cheek press release - “Times New Viking delivered the master recordings to their forthcoming LP/CD/digital album ‘Born Again Revisited’ (OLE 860) on a Video Home System cassette. Addressing the mountain of constructive criticism they’ve received from self-styled musicologists wanna-be producers and persons with my initials, the Columbus based trio promise their 2nd Matador album (and 4th overall) features “25% higher fidelity”, a percentage our own engineering staff has confirmed after hours of exhaustive laboratory tests.”
Though full of the fuzzy abrasion that the band is arguably best known for, “No Time No Hope” yet again displays why TNV have been at the fore of the lo/no/crap-fi movement of the past few years - underneath all the hissing, the screeching, the high-end treble, and the apparent tape glitches is a song filled with absolutely killer hooks and a melody that will stay on repeat in your buzzing skull. Just go on over to their myspace and listen to “My Head” for further proof. Matador releases Born Again Revisited on September 22.
