THINK LIKE A KEY MUSIC

Ireland’s psychedelic docs, Dr Strangely Strange, are back after 28 years with Anti-Inflammatory—a cure for a mad world, no prescription needed. The original crew, still electric, join ‘newbie’ Joe Thoma (fiddle-mandolin vet since ’80) in a Clonakilty studio under Brian Casey’s watch. Tim Goulding’s 'Like Water like Wind' mourns like a soft breeze, Ivan Pawle’s 'Drive ‘Em Down' ropes a cattle-romance, and Tim Booth’s 'Baby Bunting' rides a Bo Diddley pulse to the beyond. Since 1997’s Alternative Medicine, fans waited—this is their strange, soulful remedy.
