The 40 thieves turn up in leng’s back garden for a bit of late night skulduggery. kicking off side-a with ‘backward love’, a deep wobble of dub guitars, weird out fx, large 80’s synth lines and lovely throbbing bass, more than enough to get people freaky. on side-b, ‘crystal mountain thunder’ has a genius intro of ambient electronic atmosphere, which gives way to another slug of late-night dub wonkiness, with massive guitars and a hefty drumkit. as expected, a meaty joint of late night disco, for the murkier end of the dance-floor. we hear an album is coming up and if it matches the quality of this release then we’ve got a veritable treat on it’s way. check!
