referencing For The Lonely Hearts Of The Cosmos, CD, Album, melo 031cd

So even if "Lick Lokoum," the opening track of Baikonour's _For the Lonely Hearts of the Cosmos_, lulls you into thinking that it's going to be another pleasant journey on Melodic a la Minotaur Shock, "Coltan Anyone?" will quickly pull you to your feet in a post-rock stomp. The album has a certain lo-fi rock charm that certainly brings to mind creaky Soviet machinery, from the feedback of "60 to 0" to the Fender Rhodes in the background of "2/3/74." The tracks here are, for the most part, simple and direct, and interspersing them with quasi-ambient interludes gives the album some interesting texture. Perhaps those lonely hearts have finally met their match?
