About me: PictureBox (www.pictureboxinc.com) is a Grammy-Award winning studio that publishes books of its own and produces books for other publishers, too. We work with artists or bands we love to create unique projects in print. Sometimes we publish these ideas ourselves, but sometimes a museum or another publishing company will publish them. It depends on whats appropriate for the project. The Ganzfeld (www.theganzfeld.com), an annual book of visual culture, is out ongoing journal, and we've recently added a new magazine, Comics Comics (www.comicscomicsmag.com) to the fold.
Artists we publish include:
Marc Bell, Black Dice, C.F. Brian Chippendale, Julie Doucet, Ben Jones, Trenton Doyle Hancock, Taylor McKimens, Gary Panter, Paper Rad, Jason Frank Rothenberg, Frank Santoro, Peter Thompson, Matthew Thurber, and Wilco.
This is the first set from the slightly tweaked Beach Fuzz line-up with Fliss Horrocks now playing guitar alongside Tom Settle and Nick Mitchell. Seven tracks of clattering drums, chugging and wailing guitars, screaming keyboards, mellow, lilting pastoral improv and moaned vocals.

Recorded at The Bowling Green pub in Manchester on 17th November 2008, when Bridget was on tour with Marcia Bassett, this is a maximal 25-minute set of epic guitar brutalising and deep, moaned vocal incantations. Employing a bow and 'metal' effects pedals, the resulting cacophony is orchestral in scope, rendering almost unreliable the memory of one woman and her instrument. Somewhat akin to Bassett's duo with Matthew Bower, Hototogisu, the deeply layered tones created by Hayden offer, upon first exposure, a somewhat icy auditory experience, but as the recording settles in, the richness and sheer breadth of sound wraps around you like a feather quilt and shifts your perception almost 180 degrees. A truly magnificent set from this former Vibracathedral Orchestra member.
