Trails
(Big Cat) Scratching Post September 1997 by Dr. G Okay, so this was released around June time. But if you can still get hold of it, then please do. The title track is a short song that leaves you wanting to hear a 10 minute version of it, with it’s upliftingly relaxed guitar and beautiful lyrics, whilst the other 3 tracks meander along and leave you as pleased as punch. Very short single of the year. |

Trails
(Big Cat) Melody Maker June 21st 1997 by Mark Luffman For a very short second 'Trails' seems to be setting out as a sing-along. But by the end of the first line, we know where we’re always going with BD. In the looking glass, reflecting. 'I think I mostly just dream' they murmur, and instantly make the Nineties soundtrack to the idyllic escape scenes from 'Performance', where Edward Fox seems to enter a different world just by walking down a dozen stairs-so close to home, so foreign. Four walls do not a prison make, and Broken Dog are in a room of their own. 'Trails' isn’t much more than two minutes long, but how long do you need to fall in love? No longer than you do to fall out of love. Broken Dog know it-they limp a fine line. |
