Deus - In a Bar Under the Sea

DEUS's 2nd album starts with a :46 second blues song that could be a Robert Johnson b-side. From there, the Belgian avant-garde rock quintet careen from eclectic noise to haunting, beautiful pop, touching on virtually every style in between. Produced by Eric Drew Feldman (PJ Harvey keyboard player and onetime member of Captain Beefheart's Magic Band), this album contains at least 3 radio-friendly tracks: "Roses" and "Fell Off the Floor" are rocking alternative cuts, while "Little Arithmetics" has all the markings of a pop smash.
