You can sit around for the rest of your life waiting for things to
change and maybe they will, maybe they won't, either way you're not
responsible, you're not to blame. Sumo say that life's a little too
short for that sort of attitude. You want a new T.V.? Take a
breezeblock
to the window of your local electrical store and get yourself one.
You want to lose some weight? Jog down to McDonald's with a bag
full
of dynamite. You want to give Pop Music an enema it'll never
forget?
Snap on the surgical gloves and breathe on the teat because you're
going to have to do it yourself. This was a lesson Sumo learned
when
it was still just a baby.
Tired of getting monkeyed around, Raven (Dan) and Sicky (Mick) split with Papa Mantra and got independently computer-friendly. Six months of experiments, some botched, most beautiful, led to a different way of thinking and a sound like a sonic bear hug. Raw, stripped-down 21st century punk with a pop heart and beats for brains. Sumo calls it the 'antidote', to the deluge of Chart Dance, Drudge Rock and twinkly-eyed R'n'B that saturates our culture on a daily basis regardless of the season. After serving a self-imposed studio sentence that produced twenty-plus brand new selections and brought about the return of former colleague J. Cooley (Jason), Sumo set it's mind to capturing the live animal. All good stuff in theory, but putting three hotheaded cogs in the same machine is bound to create some psychological sparks. Sumo needed a lot of lubrication before it ran smoothly but now that it does, it's a train you really don't want to get in front of. | ![]() |
