Retaliate

now resident in scotland, iceland's benni hemm hemm returns. 'retaliate' is a collection of five songs which feature knives, gold, lazy pioneers, confident talibans, blood thirsty vampires, stan-stan-the-caretaker-man and last but not least blood, lots of blood. this is benni hemm hemm's first release which is all sung in english - and with english lyrics a new sound evolves. 'retaliate' is home made in almost every sense. it is recorded in bennis home in edinburgh and benni plays most of the instruments, very important exceptions being the wonderful contribution of emily scott (double bass) and peter liddle (trumpet and alto-horn).
