The Black Heart Procession - Blood Bunny / Black Rabbit

Firmly back into murkier waters

Rating: 8

If recent The Black Heart Procession albums have erred a little too much on the side of polished, Pall Jenkins and Tobias Nathaniel have steered firmly back into murkier waters with this collection of remixes and new material. The mournful piano dirge of ‘The Orchid’ and the morbid chugging ‘Devotion’ chart familiar BHP territory but their choice of remixers has taken them out of their comfort zone, dub legend Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry adds some skank (and cat impressions) to the curious ‘Freeze’, Eluvium spins ‘Drugs’ into 10 minutes of edgy ambient swirl, while Jamuel Saxon transforms the same track into a frantic haunted dubstep.
