Minimal Compact
Creation Is Perfect
2019)
An album of new versions of classic tracks by Minimal Compact and yet so much more besides. Now they have reconvened, together with producer and long-time collaborator Colin Newman (Wire), to finally capture their music in its true brilliance. Several of the band's signature songs have been re-recorded using a mix of live recordings and studio tooled performances. The result is an album that radiates vitality and sheer class. Highlights include live favourite "Statik Dancin" with its barbed hooks and irresistible groove. The bright, tender optimism of "My Will" is especially moving, with Spigel's vocal at the fore. Then there is "Take Me Away", with its tightly coiled hypnotic guitar lines edging towards mania. The album climaxes with a brand new song, "Holy Roller". "Creation is Perfect" is an album of power and depth that demands repeated plays. Crackling with energy and immediacy, this is the sound of a band reaching a new level of creativity.
