terror bird are a canadian group based on some fascinating contradictions and revolving around the powerful, affecting voice of nikki never. emerging with bedroom-forged cassettes on night people records, never added synth players and drummers as she went on, via releases on la station radar and night school, finally arriving at this point - a harder-hitting synth-goth masterpiece in ‘secret rituals.’ gone are the reservations and shyness of the straight-to-4 track songs of old and in their place is a forceful, immediate collection of songs that showcase never’s precise and emotive voice. tracks like ‘thrill killer’ are 80s goth pop songs re-imagined for the 21st century underground, insistent and propulsive, ‘secret rituals’ is a lush, dark gem and tracks like ‘if we escape’ are heroic, doomed-youth anthems for souls running from an impending doom, overfull but still pumping. the production is clearer than before, the passion intensified. killer lp

“Der very britishe Umgangston mit der Welt, den Crystal Soda Cream auf Tape und Bühne artikulieren, erinnert […] an den feinen, zynischen Esprit von popexistentialisten wie The Smiths oder The Cure, wenn auch oft konträr dazu vermittels pathosfrei zusammengestauchter Texte – also Morrissey minus Ego, Smith minus Selbstmitleid.” skug, Journal für Musik #92
