When Stuart Moxham left his post in the legendary Young Marble Giants he created the Gist, a loose project where guests like Epic Soundtracks plus ex-Giants Alison Statton and Phil Moxham would make cameos over Stuart's experiments.
First off, there's "Clean Bridges," a hypnotic meeting of twee and Eno-influenced art pop featuring Statton's vocals. Then there's "Love at First Sight," where a former Giant lets more R&B into his life, plus the reggae-influenced "Iambic Pentameter," which predicts the subaquatic dub sound of the Basic Channel label and at a ska pace. Brilliant moments like these are why Herd deserves a post-punk lover's attention
