Lloyd Cole & The Commotions
Listening to the vignettes on The Commotions' debut LP it is easy
to figure that Lloyd Cole fancied himself as Norman Mailer but
quickly abandoned every idea he had.
The evidence is all over Rattlesnakes, in a whirlwind
of "wanna come back and check my book shelves, babe?"
references set to a luxuriant pop score.
Imagine Leonard Cohen locked in a room with The Beatles and
forced to come up with a hit, and that's Rattlesnakes in
a nutshell. Sensual massage oil for literate student poseurs.
Lawrence Donegan subsequently left the band to become a
journalist.
