Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction was, and gloriously still is, a rock band which plays “a sleazy style of commercial hard rock featuring big riffs and choruses, as was the trend in the band's heyday of the mid-to-late 1980s and early 1990s. The camp lyrics are intended as self-parody, and can be seen as either humorous, or offensive by those who take them at face value”.
Sounds rather like Dangerboy or Supercheese, only having the manifold advantage of being talented and having a record deal.
You can imagine that would be just the JC’s thing, can’t you, and it is, and always had been, even before the JC discovered that he had, for a number of years, been an occasional cricketing acquaintance of the Mindwarp’s lead guitarist. This fact overjoyed the JC, who loves to hobnob with rock ’n’ roll royalty as much as the next fellow, and has never really had the chance since Love’s Ugly Children broke up in 1998.
All of this is by way of digression to say that a “Zodiac Mindwarp” is the JC’s way of saying “proper brain-bender”. One applies it, with generous helpings of irony, to the baroque figures one encounters in an ISDA Master Agreement.
