Excellent and varied reed work throughout. This album is full of tense rushing climaxes, soft peaceful sways, eerie jagged blasts, rapid percussion, driving fierce instrumentals, dark schizophrenia, and some of the catchiest cacophonies to fall in love by. Lo-fi trio featuring two groovy chicks and a guy from the Gories in drag. Right up there with the Trashwomen. He's as intense as ever with strong improvisations on a variety of reeds, including some nice breathy clarinet work.
Drake is excellent on frame drum and drum set as well.
The two interact very subtly and musically, covering a broad emotional and technical range. This is a candidate for my best of '95. This is a guy from Millbrae playing about fifteen different instruments, helped out on a few tracks by his brother on drums and Dan Plonsey of Manufacturing of Humidifiers. Various tracks reminded me of Sun Ra, the Molecules, and Sun City Girls. Some real noisy, skronky guitar pieces, extremely spacious and spacey Sun Ra tributes, nice use of samples and some sheer noise.
