Product Information
Recorded with the 3-D depth of analogue but there's less geek and more funk; more Mod than Modular in the new album's tail ored, minimalist design. Stephen Mallinder's vocals are a surreal joy, smeared with effects and electronics as they change, chant and shift around the jump-cut lyrics.
The opening trio of »Alpha Omega«, »Stupid« (Mallinder in a new mutant funk-falsetto) and »Clockwork« sets up White Glue with the crisp crack and thud of sequenced rhythms and lush synthesizers. »Dirty« slams into a compelling funk beat with a bristling guitar riff courtesy of Julie Campbell (LoneLady). Mallinder delivers one of the most memorable vocals of his career - venting, sliding and punching through the layers of noise with real urgency and bile. He employs his voice-instrument to more measured effect on »Stop« but it's no less hypnotic - a feverish guilt-mantra of out-of-control consumerism. The white-light-techno-rush, triggered synths and chopp ed-up, multi-layered vocals of »Real Life« is followed by »Days« which slowly loops in and then flicks off the safety catch with heavy bass and moody synth lines. »Superset« is a late highlight as the band coax the rhythm into life before hitting hard with a lovely, deep groove. »Colliding« is the spacey Krautrock closer, a beautiful, nuanced semi-instrumental song which exits with dreamy, abstract vocoder sounds and ambient synths.
Rezensionen
»Maschinenmusik at its best. (... ) Stephen Mallinder ist eine Legende, weil er schon bei den Industrial-Pionieren Cabaret Voltaire sang. Ihm zur Seite stehen bei Wrangler Phil Winter (Tunng) und Benge (John Foxx & The Maths). Musikalisch erinnert White Glue, ihr zweites Album, an die frühe Phase elektronischer Popmusik Mitte der Siebziger bis Ende der Achtziger. Man kann darin die Liebe für die stoischen Beats der Krautrocker hören, aber auch die Faszination für den verstörenden elektronischen Rockabilly von Martin Rev und Alan Vega (R.I.P.) alias Suicide.« (SPEX 08/2016)Die Hörproben gehören zum Artikel Wrangler: White Glue (CD).
