I can see the headlines now ‘DDD in proper song sellout’, well not really but ‘I Smell The Blood’ has enough sweet coefficients to at least merit an errant glance from Larry Gogan’s ear lobe. Of course, Bobby being Bobby, the tasty forward momentum of the early manoeuvres is quickly swept under a carpet of blind alleys, creative cul-de-sac’s and general lo-fism by the finish. Wouldn’t have it any other way mind as this boy is destined to do something that will move a lot of people some time soon. With his unparalleled workrate this song is actually taken from 3 releases ago even though ‘Luanqibazao’ only came out at the end of September. God knows how current EP ‘Yykes Basket’ sounds, perhaps he’s already grabbed Snow Patrol’s copyright on cigarette lighter anthems by the nuts. The possibilities seem endless. KD

Hurrah for Bobby. I heard he made a new album last night and will be holing himself up in a secluded country studio for the follow-up sometime after lunch today.
And have you heard how the only instruments he will be using are a box of lego and a wonka bar?
His new release is great, and comes on one of those tiny CDs. You can purchase it from his page on Rack & Ruin…..do it folks! (he gets 100% of the pennies for the record)Deanhttp://www.rackandruinrecord.com
