Catchy outsider pop album from Paper Recordings star 0898 Dave. Following the mutilated electro punk funk of the 'Ballad of Henry' EP, 'When the River Runs Dry we Die' is a random and lethal concoction of tunes made from birds singing, police sirens and 80s hairdos.

Just when you think you're listening to good old-fashioned songwriting and dance-along ear-pleasing melodies, a track comes along that takes a 45 degree turn and explodes into a strange combination of electronic music, edgy humour and bizarre lyrics.

It's a gentle acoustic pop album with a dark sinister edge and a few nifty ballads. Each track typifies a different mood and like a schizophrenic poison, leaves your head spinning with dizzying effect.
