Search - The Ergot Derivative :: In Fear of a Flat Earth

"On this, their first full length album, The Ergot Derivative stand alone, without the ornamentation of their slides, light shows or travelling freak squad whose antics adorn and enrich their live performances. From out of the rubble of that ghastly Eighties catch phrase 'Post-modernism' comes a collection of songs delving into different musical styles and influences that display the Ergots' desire to present a series of 'musical masks' or characters rather than creating a limited musical identity through one style. IN FEAR OF A FLAT EARTH proves beyond doubt that the Ergots' music is where their true strength lies, as original as it is inspirational. All Hail Eris Discordia" - Richard Watts, Fitzroy, December 1993.
