Black Sheep
2008 two CD release from the British singer, songwriter and one-time Teardrop Explodes leader. Black Sheep is a musical exploration of what it is to be an outsider in modern Western Culture. Across 11 songs and one epic poem, Cope examines the idea of social outcasts and how they - through their sheer obstinacy and strength of personality - carve a path for themselves in the normal world, often changing society?s own concepts of normality in the process. Cope attributes his personal descent into outsider-dom to his ninth birthday on which 116 children his own age died in the infamous Aberfan Disaster The 11 songs here reveal Cope at a pinnacle of songwriting and feature sumptuous lashings of orchestral Mellotron, orchestral percussion and marching bass drums, plus oboe, wah guitar, rumbling synthesizers and gorgeous harmony vocals. Head Heritage.
