Being such a huge fan of his previous album, Peggy Suicide, I was so eager to hear what Julian Cope would come up with next. Jehovahkill was a massive double album of pagan megalithic heathen mother earth concepts and a thrashing of mainstream monotheism. I loved it.
Fear Loves This Place was the obvious "hit" from this album of challenging electronic krautrock epics and lo-fi guitar strumming. It looks at the subject of domestic violence and its existence in a supposedly peaceful and loving Christian society. Today it's the right-wing evangelical Christian US government that has brought the Crusades back after 1500 years to proselytize through their beautiful loving fear and death all over the place. We're living one hell of a heaven.
