专辑简介

The making of 'Mechanical Heart' resulted in one casualty in terms of Pink Grease’s personnel with the amicable departure Stuart Faulkner. His ready-made replacement is Dan Pencavel, Rory’s old friend and flatmate, who has been part of the PG entourage since Day One. “He started out as a crap roadie,“ Santa Cruz laughs, “then became super-roadie and now he’s a fantastic bassist.”
　　Meanwhile, new songwriters have emerged within PG. Santacruz still sets the framework, as per previous albums. “Ordinary Girl”, the frenzied lead-off single, was composed by drummer Marc Hoad, and two other tracks, “Decimation” and “Don’t Show Me How”, came from John Lynch.
　　Perhaps as a result, the subject matters have altered. Whereas almost every past Pink Grease song was about sex in one form or another, this time the lyrics are, says Lewarne, “more about relationships”. Santa Cruz admits that it_s still "50% about sex but the rest about heartbreak and nihilism.” If he_d mentioned zombies and alien abductions too, he_d have covered it.
　　And the music? The intention was, says Steve, to forge an “indescribable sound”, so they’re struggling to find the adjectives. “I hate the word ‘dark’,” says Rory, “but there’s less of the cabaret rock’n’roll element.” Steve also considers it “darker and more moody” than previous PG releases, and Rory thinks it’s “more textural, more adventurous”. Then, Steve nails it: “You can hate us all individually, but you can’t resist the sound we make together.”
