Approaching 'Unearthed' as a album of songs would mean taking a wrong turn. Though both Blegvad and Greaves are such great songsmiths, these tracks (with the curious exception of "The only song") are not songs, but stories. And when it comes to the storytelling department, Peter Blegvad is in his element: surreal, humorous, intriguing, moving, intelligent, absurd. The combination of Blegvad the narrator and Greaves the provider of musical atmospheres reaches a magical moment in "Christmas past", the jewel in the lot. Sometimes the diverse nature of these stories conspires against a sustained mood, so this album may benefit from not being taken as a whole, but as a collection of little 'pataphysical' tales to be savored individually.
