"Leeds post-math perfectionists THE DRAGON RAPIDE have their lushly packaged 2nd studio collection now up for grabs. This is joyous & fizzy, uncompromising, optimistic, widdly, wobbly, kaleidoscopic & heart warming stuff. A great leap forward from the debut CD, musically, stylistically & in the production stakes too. There's elements of free jazz & world music here & there but all in all no threat of Andy Kershaw coming round your house to chew your ear off with that worthy accent. So think maybe a friskier, dizzier Tortoise jamming with small slices of Sea & Cake, Him, hints of Mice Parade & Five Style. Very intricate & clever stuff indeed. The sleeve art was done by their friend from Liverpool & blew me away". (Norman Records )

Members of bands such as The Lapse, Kito, Brown Owl, COWTOWN, TIGERS!, etc.
