surf'n'motorik


"Honolulu mountain daffodils was a pet project of Adrian Borland, who released their first album in 1988, citing such influences as Neu! at a time when that probably meant very little to most. I picked up this, their third LP, in 1991 after hearing the remorseless motorik monster "Psychic Hit-list Victim No.8" on a cheap label sampler - it blew me away with its collision of suicide and kraut. It's only 4 minutes long but I could listen to it at full throttle all night, it makes me want to do bad(good) things -"I got psychic Radiation" Yeah !".
