Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Acknowledging the demons and angels that drive you is one thing, to actively seek them out, to knock on their own door in the dead of night and ask them to dance, is quite another. By taking this course of action, being proactive and seeing them smile after an exhausting session in which you are in control, somehow the demon is diminished, not quite eradicated but made too drained to care about upsetting the creative process; the demon may dance, the angelic voice may soar, but it is too the artist that all ends well for.
