THE BEVIS FROND
The Bevis Frond was Nick Saloman, a neo-psychedelic Renaissance man and the sole writer, performer, and producer behind the cottage industry bearing the Frond name. The head of his own label (Woronzow) as well as the co-publisher of his own underground magazine (the highly regarded Ptolemaic Terrascope), Saloman was a quintessential English eccentric, a frighteningly prolific talent and a true anachronism purveying an archaic musical genre while simultaneously pioneering the lo-fi aesthetic.....

it was not until 1990's Any Gas Faster that Nick Saloman came up with a record that was truly strong from start to finish. It's probably not coincidental that Any Gas Faster was also the first album Saloman recorded in a proper studio instead of on his bedroom four-track; perhaps having to keep one eye on the studio clock caused Saloman to approach the task of recording with a somewhat more determined air. Because that's really the difference: the songs on Any Gas Faster just sound that little bit more purposeful, even acoustic interludes like "These Dark Days." As a result, Any Gas Faster rocks harder than the previous albums without the sludge that occasionally bogs those records down. Martin Crowley's fleet drumwork undoubtedly helps an awful lot here; with Saloman on drums, a song like "Then You Wanted Me" would lumber, but here, it's almost punky in its hard-rocking intensity. And that one's got nothing on the breakneck "Olde Worlde," one of the most manic things Saloman's ever come up with, with a closing dual-guitar battle like Television might sound after Verlaine and Lloyd had slammed a dozen espressos each. For traditionalists, there are also a few of Saloman's trademark melodic rockers, with the delicately sorrowful "This Corner of England" and the anthemic "Lord Plentiful Reflects" among the highlights in the more typically Bevis-like vein...(AllMusic)
