Default Solar Shears by Shooglenifty

In this thread, everybody is invited to comment on -or enquire about - this album, which is the latest poll-winner from The FAIR Album Club :-

Solar Shears by Shooglenifty (2001)



Shooglenifty do more than just add an electronic gloss to Celtic-sounding music, they create a convincing marriage of techno and traditional elements to produce “hypno-folkadelic” or “acid-croft” music. Play it loud to hear all the delicious details, and to understand why this band chose, for their name, a Scottish word that means “shake or agitate”.
I`ve enjoyed playing this album many times since I bought it about six years ago, so it`d be interesting to hear what anyone else makes of it. Don`t worry if you feel impelled to give it an "awful" vote, that`d be welcome too !
