Twisted Nerve is the Badly Drawn Boy's label. "Safety In Numbers sees Twisted Nerve re-acquainting itself with the label sampler format and introduces the boys and girls of the TN Class of 2003. Opens with DOT's 'Part Three', a drum heavy, exhilarating post-rock stomp that's been a live favorite for the last couple of years. The second track is by one of TN's newest signings Luma Lane. Sounding not unlike Julee Cruise taking a late-night stroll through Moominland, Luma Lane's music will charm and unnerve you in equal measures. Toolshed's 'NaNaNaNaNaaNaa' is like nothing you've ever heard before -- with knobs on. Call it Kosmiche-freakout-spacerock, call it avant-freejazz-opera, call it what you want, but one thing that it most certainly isn't is music to have on in the background. Sirconical's layered, distorted test tones, oblique melodicism and that magical but rare thing in electronic music - warmth - are all present and correct. Safety In Numbers ends somewhat appropriately with Misty Dixon's 'Outro'. Music to fall in and out of love to, the debut LP will see the dreamy chanteuses of Misty Dixon stretch their minimal pop paeans to epic proportions."
