See my post #74989 of 6 Nov.02 in the Listserv archive, with 2 responses... there was a brief mention of them in the NYTimes and I queried the list. Consensus was that their language was probably gibberish. (Though it sounded like interesting music; a friend said I'd probably like it, but I'm disinclined to spend money on CDs these days.) I agree on the Reli(ae)nt K stuff; furthermore, it seems to be written with Engl. spelling conventions, such that the two words in "...-eare" and "..-mere" presumably rhyme.
