If you didn't guess from the silly album title (a revered tradition of the Brussels) that intrepid band of Chichester rockers who sing in tongues at pub rock gigs and take the gospel to unspeakable hell holes now offer their devoted followers a praise and worship tape. At least they didn't call it 'indie rock praise'. If the idea of Kendricks' "Heaven Is In My Heart" or the Victorian hymn "Praise My Soul" transformed by overdrive guitars and bawled vocals into alternative rock worship sounds bizarre, the anarchic foursome carry it off with flare. Another heartening sign that worship recordings are diversifying into dozens of stylistic fragments.
