SUNDAY ALL OVER THE WORLD
KNEELING AT THE SHRINE (1991)
320 KBPS
A collaboration between guitarist Robert Fripp and his wife, vocalist Toyah Wilcox, Sunday All Over the World is an arty, ambitious project that attempts to push the boundaries of pop music. Much of Kneeling At the Shrine is indeed intriguing. Wilcox is a daring, gifted singer, posessing a graceful, soaring soprano. Fripp proves that his reputation as one of rock's most challenging and inventive guitarists is well-earned, as he creates endless layers of highly texture soundscapes. Along with Trey Gunn (playing a Chapman Stick) and drummer Paul Beavis, the duo has created an album that is fiercely cerebral, inventive and intriguing. It is also a bit of a difficult listen, especially for listeners accustomed to regular pop and rock but those willing to put some time in, Kneeling At the Shrine can yield some unique rewards.

Dowload and you'll see... ;)
I'm sort of surprised at the album description, particularly the use of the word "pop". This has a lot in common with Fripp's League of Gentlemen where he also attacked the short form song structure (comparable to what Jerry Harrison did in his non-Talking Heads albums). What sets this apart is Toyah's voice, having a timbre similar to Kate Bush's, but in this collaboration stretches the boundary of her instrument in ways that her prior work would not have suggested likely. Kind of a shame that this band didn't do any more together, because this is some hot music.
