Limited edition of 50 hand numbered copies, printed in color and packaged in paper bags into plastic ziplock bags".- fNs

"biri-biri-biri, chose rats, playing shapes" (cd-r 2008)
tigerasylum records (6$)
compralo aquí/buy it here www.tigerasylum.com/Artists/Pier.html

"These free jazz/no-wave noisemakers from Madrid are a far way from Brooklyn, but they’re ok in my book. They take improv to new levels along the punk/noise hemisphere. Band members Buter, Willyfunk, and Nicolash multi-task as each hurdles from instrument to instrument showing no restraint and no restrictions as they restructure the inner workings of your ear holes. Expect ripping bass throughout coupled with bursts and blasts of reeds, brass and the occasional shout out a la Pere Ubu. They ride these tracks like freight trains. ".- Tigerasylum Records

"Colaboración entre las bandas madrileñas Au y pier, este impactante CDR de 32 minutos reúne lo mejor de cada grupo en 12 temas improvisados, donde la intensidad, la contundencia y el salvajismo metalero de Au y los sonidos libres, no-wave, funk y arítmicos de pier, se unen para crear un ruido multiforme, donde caben micros de contacto, trompetas, guitarras, saxos, bajos, baterías, gritos, armónicas, y otros sonidos no identificados que finaliza en una versión de "A Love Supreme" de Coltrane sin igual. Un ruido supremo.
Doble edición limitada. Una de 40 copias numeradas a mano, diseño por Timy (Au) con impresión a color y empaquetado en fundas de plástico. La otra de 50 copias numeradas a mano, diseño de Buter (pier) con impresión a color y empaquetado en bolsas de plástico con cierre zip.".- fNs

A noise supreme.
