Cevin Key, best known for his work with Download, Skinny Puppy, Doubting Thomas
and Cyberaktif, finally breaks down and releases a collection of solo material
dating back to 1994. This thirteen track CD mostly contains
collaborative efforts between Cevin and Dwayne Goettel, Genesis P-Orridge, Phil
Western, Marc Spybey, and others. In fact, only three tracks on "Music For
Cats" are true solo work. Nevertheless, this album gives us an insight into the
world of Cevin's Green-Guy hazed mind. At best, this realm is a haphazard
array of analogue synth whorls and meandering percussion and is so
chaotic that it is painful to experience. Because this album contains music
written over four years, there is no continuity, instead there is an
extremely disjointed array of tracks that cross all electronic musical
boundaries. This is not to say that the music doesn't have its
high points, but rather to inform the listeners that it might take a few dozen
listens to truly appreciate the cacophony of "Music For Cats".
