MORCHEEBA Blood Like Lemonade (2010 UK CD album - Returning
for their seventh album, multi-instrumentalists Paul and Ross Godfrey
reunite with vocalist Skye Edwards for the first time since 2002. 'Blood
Like Lemonade' is the album Morcheeba havebeen searching for all
these years, one which takes the essence of earlier classics like 'Who
Can You Trust?' and the half-million selling 'Big Calm', and transports
it to exotic new places. At its heart are the band's trademark oozing
downtempo trip hop grooves, embellished with intriguing, idiosyncratic
flourishes like the African thumb-piano of 'Even Though', the sitar
drone and blues harmonica of 'Mandala', and the freak-folk guitar
jangle of 'I Am The Spring', and topped off with Skye's intimately
soulful vocals. It is also at once their most introspective album, with
songs that illuminate the band's personal situation, and their most
outwardlooking, as Paul Godfrey's lyrics pursue characters into
uncharted territories - the avenging vampire of 'Blood Like
Lemonade', the abandoned astronaut of 'Even Though', the homicidal
dinnerparty host of 'Recipe For Disaster', and the Viking explorers of
'Beat Of The Drum').
