Another of those obscurities on the Pôle label, Subversion were an odd one, in that every track on their album ventured to a different genre, and sometimes within a track they'd explore musics one wouldn't normally put together. We have folk, Ange style prog, Canterbury style fusion, jazz, breezy calypso, pop, symphonic classical prog, and I guess you get the idea - an album that doesn't gel at all. Experimental in parts, I guess, with some brief moments of brilliance, but was too varied for its own good! (ultimathulerecords)
