AMORPHOUS ANDROGYNOUS - TALES OF EPHIDRINA (1993)![]() CD (CDEBV1)/LP (LPEBV1)/CD (ASW 6101) July 30th 1993 01. Liquid Insects 02. Swab 03. Mountain Goat 04. In Mind 05. Ephidrena 06. Auto Pimp 07. Fat Cat 08. Pod Room Notes: The album features some unusual credits: Written by Amorphous Androgynous. Recorded at the Analogue Room - London. Engineered by Yage. Produced by Philip Pin. Directed by F.S.O.L. Reworked at Earthbeat Studios - London. Quite why the album was not recorded and produced at Earthbeat by Dougans and Cobain is unknown. The album was released on Quigley Records, FSOL's short-lived stem of Virgin. After signing to Virgin, Dougans and Cobain released an album as a teaser for the direction they were heading in, under their newly formed Amorphous Androgynous name. The album is a direct mix of the beat-based techno from Accelerator, and the environmental ambience of Lifeforms. Rumours exist of the album being 'outtakes' from Lifeforms, although there is little to evidence to suggest this, with the 1992 Kiss FM test transmissions previewing much of the album, thus suggesting it was recorded before much of Lifeforms had begun. Buggy G. Riphead artwork, for the first time including photographs and sophisticated graphic textures. Charts: UK independent album chart: number 3. Purchase from FSOLDigital. |
