right. time to catch up on my correspondence. buncha people wrote me or posted stuff or sent links. and i paid jack shit hee haw not the slightest fucking heed. then everything fell apart for a while. but shit is back. and shit is better than ever.
first up some fellas from tokyo. tokyo japan. lest there be any misunderstanding.
peddling a kind of math-y uberrocknot unlike the mighty don (caballero). or a pop(pier) version of mono. nah that’s horseshite. more like shellac than mono. it’s instrumental in the best possible way. no ponderous pretentious fucking about with pedals and delays. just balls to the wall rifforamas.
intricate but not delicate. like being beaten round the head by robert fripp at his most vicious. don’t be fooled by the name. they’re all kinds of full fat sugared up and chock bustin with proper boozed up alkyhol.
why should you lissen? well they toured and released with mike watt. from minutemen / firehose / banyan (not so much for me) / stooges infamy. mike watt fer chrissakes. and art by raymond pettibon. pettibon fer chrissakes.
anyway if you dig oxes and dysrhythmia and all that complex jazzed up geetar rock you should dig this.
