Review by Krystle S

Tyranny And The Hired Hand is a unique and captivating album by the late Frank Tovey. Tovey, who was known for his experimental and avant-garde approach to music, delivers a powerful and thought-provoking performance on this record.

The album opens with the track "Luxury", which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The song is a haunting and atmospheric piece that showcases Tovey's ability to create a dark and brooding mood. The following track, "Concrete", is a more upbeat and energetic song that features Tovey's signature electronic sound.

Throughout the album, Tovey explores themes of power, control, and oppression. He uses his music as a vehicle to express his views on these issues, and his lyrics are both poetic and provocative. The standout track on the album is "Bridge St.", a haunting and melancholic song that tells the story of a man who jumps off a bridge to escape the tyranny of his life.
