Beyond the often quoted 'Salvation Army band playing carousel punk in a force ten gale' type of thing, there are a multitude of influences that suffused Tim's style - prog and ROI, new wave, traditional British and early music composers, twelve-tone music, and so on.

amazing! who's in the band??
― frogbs, Friday, 3 May 2024 21:59 (one month ago) link
Bic, Jim, Baba, Jon, Jo but not sure about the rest, they had additional perc, sax and keys. Also, Mark Cawthra sang occasionally and maybe Tiny from Ultrasound.

Hearing 'Anything I Can't Eat' really brought it all back to me, seeing those HB&EB songs played live, they always sounded so brilliant, loads better than the recorded counterparts (apart from March and Helen & Heaven)

It seems to be a very active time for you. What are the plans for the future? Will "LSD", the lost Cardiacs album, ever be released? (started recording in 2008 and never finished due to Tim's illness)Jim: LSD? We have completed all the recordings. Many think that it was an almost completely completed project but it wasn't. There was still a lot to work on and we brought it to a final form. It's ready for the mixing phase, we're working slowly but I think it will be ready next year. All the voices were still missing, we recorded them but I can't tell you who sang yet.Jon: Jim won't say it, but he's been particularly active on this project from a studio work perspective. He was the key elementJo: Now you know too much, we'll have to kill you (laughs)

The singing issue is a tough one, Jon probably the best suited. I'd like to hear Sharon, Craig, Bill, Richard L, Jon or maybe even Bic, but as glorious as the gigs were and it was amazing to see people like Cawthra, the singing was often not great. Kav co-wrote a fair chunk of the record so he might be on it.

Never listened to Cardiacs til this past week. Not what I would have guessed somehow, it’s sorta like giant on-stage choral musical theater feeling. My 20yr old heard a little HBEB w me and said “it’s a lot of things but it’s a bit like oingo boingo.” i’m sure i looked confused, but after considering it— yeah.
