Joined by two Finns from the eccentric Circle, what is ably laid down in Paranoia is an exercise in nostalgia, a brief but effective homage to the heyday of bands like BÖC and Budgie, but managing to create it's own character. Layered with the kind of synthesizer textural features designed to locate the listener in lava-lamp land, it's authentic retro feel is what sets the record apart. Mr. Black is experimenting a lot and searches for new sounds.
