A mad collection of songs detailing Mohr's mental self-initiated spiritual collapse and ensuing recovery - hopping the genres from catchy rock songs, dark wave, dance, pub rock, nostalgia and genetic algorithm house music.

Details:
This collection really pushes it. As the final chapter in the Karl Mohr cassette legacy (1998), the genre and craziness collision goes into super-overdrive.

Here we find such massive successes as the Tom Waits-inspired "Impostor", the trance shuffle of "I Whisper", acoustic punk and pub rock. There are also truly novel moments such as the electroacoustic genetic-algorithm-programmed house destruction music of "Hello Dolly" -- the style boomerang brings this collection back to Mohr's Audio-Yo lunatic status.

If there remains a consistent thread holding the whole narrative together, it is Mohr's excellent lyrics, vocal expression and free-form subconscious-direct linguistics. Here you may find yourself understanding what's going on, when you are quite positive you shouldn't be able to. The moody poetry of "No Stars No Moon" and "New Rambunctilozilla" reveal a unique perspective.

With many, many guests here, you've never heard a more preposterous compilation of music. Hang on for the ride! Accompanying the creation of these songs was a full-on nervous breakdown and spiritual collapse for Mohr. It will be easy to see why! Indeed: be careful what you wish for!

The perfect soundtrack to help you on your way down to mental illness, or perhaps an excellent tonic to help you claw your way back up! The genius on this record is unmistakable.
