Album Review: Full Moon Fiasco - Cosmic Palms
Wednesday, 13th October 2010 3:11PMWill Rattray is an ambiguous musical creature. He walks a Wellington walk; a 1970’s nonchalant hippy vibe that’s tie-dyed bliss with the occasional dreadlock and hand made pant combo in tow. It’s the kind of walk, and perhaps heart, one images beating to timpani drums and Hare Krishna marches up Cuba Street whilst devouring vegan necessities and the occasional organic cider (if at all). But then, to completely contradict all this, there’s Rattray’s voice in Full Moon Fiasco, a deep, crooning (yes!) and sexually motivated drawl that is uncompromising in its consistency. And there’s also the immaculate production of both of his musical outfits – Thought Creature and Full Moon Fiasco – that is entirely down to Rattray himself. An ambiguous notion indeed is Mr. Rattray, and one that Cosmic Palms, more so than any previous output, is all the better for.
