Northern Picture Library - Love Song for the Dead Che (1993)

"Northern Picture Library's debut release immediately distanced the group from Bobby Wratten and Annemari Davies' previous work in the Field Mice; favoring electronic textures, ambient drones, and trip-hop rhythms over the jangling guitars of the past, 'Love Song for the Dead Ché' (a cover of a track from the United States of America's classic self-titled LP) is cold and remote where the Field Mice were warm and deeply intimate. Give Wratten and Davies credit for staking out new territory, but both versions of the song are simply too dispassionate to really work and pale in comparison to the original. The closer, 'The Way That Stars Die,' is a sequencer-driven instrumental recalling Field Mice efforts like 'Let's Kiss and Make Up' -- engineer Ian Catt's fingerprints are all over the recording, evoking his work with Saint Etienne."
