Clinic: What's Behind Those Surgical Masks?
Yancey Strickler, Neumu, 9 October 2001
CLINIC SINGER Ade Blackburn's voice hiccups, squeals and coos, like a child just learning how to talk. Lyrics consist of unintelligible gibberish like "Tikki tikki tomononow." During a rare moment of clarity, Blackburn sings, "I picture you in coffins/My baby in her coffin," and considering the sweetness of the melody, you have to wonder if he understands the words he sings.
