Cope’s fifteen year reign as Britain’s quirky alterno-pop king lasted until the mid-nineties, bequeathing the stomping hit single World Shut Your Mouth and the acid-breakdown album Fried.
Nowadays the shaman-trickster shrouds his instinctive melodic gifts with obnoxious seventies pre-punk filth and eccentric pagan politics.
Though the first of its two discs is sluggish in parts, Psychedelic Revolution sports an unequivocal banker bashing ethos, and sounds like an anarchist commune of Odinist krautrockers fronted by a slightly shot Scott Walker.
And Cope can still mainline the sublime, with the analogue synth buzz of X-Mas In The Woman’s Shelter or the anthemic thrust of Hooded And Benign.
