KITCHEN CYNICS - Compulsive Songwriting Disorder

Small and quiet places are the perfect breeding ground for fragile beauty that fights the inner demons. painting a poetic picture drenched in acid folk gentleness. Another very nice collection of songs by poet Alan Davidson. accompanied by a variety of instruments. with some great versions of Briget St.John. Ivor Cutler & a Lal Waterson songs. in a typical Kitchen Cynics style. Very inspired texts showing a poetic vision of tiny worlds situations that show a variety of perspectives. and a desire to open up like seeds. One track is a dialogue with Simon and Cara Lewis. All other songs are entirely multitracked one man performances. Like any Kitchen Cynics release. highly recommended. Alans favourite songtitles : I want you on a mountain top.
