But it's on Casablanca Moon that all the charm an musicality of the band is shown to best effect. The opener 'Casablanca Moon' is a sleazy minor key waltz reeking of seamy ill-doings and the mental collapse of a hapless double agent, no doubt in an Algerian Casbah - and who these days writes lyrics like 'lines of sweat like tinsel/ start to smart his eyes' - genius. 'Mr Rainbow' is a tribute to Arthur Rimbaud, which features a verse as delictae and beautiful as the chorus is grating and awful. The music on CM overall is characterised by a deft naivete - it's pop, but not as we know it. But it's unerringly lovely, and the closer, 'Slow Moon's Rose', is a beautiful lullably - or pastiche of one - which draws the listener into a glittering, arctic world of frozen rivers and silver trellises.

But there are gems a-plenty throughout this CD; Desperate Straights also is not without its moments, but it's too diverse to summarise easily.

Buy this CD - find out why Les Singes ne pensent que s'amuser - and baffle your friends with pointless arty references for months to come.

But DON'T listen to Caucasian Lullably. You've been warned. Amazon-Kunde
