it takes the collective muscle of WINNERS DON'T SHIVER and GIANT TANK to slop up this much experimental weird-ass sound.....
ELI KESZLER Rhode Island USA solo drummerboy/ alemaster who happily mashes grains from the collected public houses of ecstatic free jazz, modern weirdo composition, no wave blunders and blootered gamelan using an array of gongs, bells, bowed percussives and amplification to brew his own tenacious improv tipple. Jandek, Greg Kelley, Steve Pyne and more have all propped up his bar to slurp that "straight from the barrel taste".
RETAIL UNIT 1990s throwback Sandy Milroy plays some archaic noises using ambidextrous minidisc technique he honed in days before he met them Muscletusk 21st Century boys.
BRITTLE HAMMER FOUR Two parts Usurper sparsecore brothers + one part Peeesseye yodelling traps-man + one part Dead Labour Process drool-tape farmer= all parts WRONG!!!
SCRIM His 'n' hers hiss 'n' hum piss 'n' moan duo wash muddy tones 'n' drones through low-ends 'n' lugs to leave yon mind swamped in free music's murk 'n' mire.

"Es (Fonal's head honcho) arrives from Finland's verdant psych pack, New York's all-systems/all-outcompassing Peeesseye splurge forth Chris Forsyth, and Ignatz (Kraak) appears to play his amazingly intense songs after seemingly undergoing some aural time travelling via an internship with some delta-blues players and the New Zealand no-fi scene."
