Felt - "Let the Snakes Crinkle Their Heads to Death"

"Let the Snakes Crinkle Their Heads to Death" (1986)

Felt

"Let the Snakes Crinkle Their Heads to Death" is the first purely instrumental album by Felt. It's the first album released without contribution from Maurice Deebank. The music is completely focused on Martin Duffy's keyboard playing. "Sapphire Mansions" and "Song for William S. Harvey" are the two greatest songs on the album, the rest of the album, to me, is decent. Let the Snakes is an album that grows on you, but by no means is it instantly lovable. The title of the album is genius though...
