From the visual pun of the cover art to titles like "Stella Is A Pygmy" (Parts 1, 2 and 3!), the former Gorky's Zygoti Mynci leader is still forging his own little surreal and charming sound world. With his solo debut, he proves the breakup of his former band was a good move, following their dreary swan-song, Sleep/Holiday. Recorded mostly by himself, Childs employs mostly acoustic guitars and layered keyboards to his deranged songs, ranging from half-minute loony tunes to longer hypnotic pieces based on repeated mantra-like lyrics.
