专辑简介

by Eugene Chadbourne

The devotees of freaky music should be able to have it all on this trio CD, taped in two sessions over two months by a pair of Polish avant garde musicians and a lone renegade Vienna electric guitar picker associated with the so-called reductionist school. Between the three of them, surnames like an Eastern European spy team, is a combined force of several electric guitars, an alto saxophone, a computer, a synthesizer and the usual jumble of wires and connecting tubing that from the sound of things is feeding secret potions into a severed head.

These players come at each other with intense focus, so no worries about getting all sleepy when Burkhard Stangl leads them into play at an extremely low volume. The intensity of this dynamic decision and the brilliance with which it is carried out is as forceful as Anna Zaradny's slap-tonguing, on the title track sandwiching a section of choral fusion, although what life-form the pitched long tone is fusing has yet to be determined. Guitarist Robert Piotrowicz gets more out of a single click then a more famous British dude with the same first name gets out of a whole choir of electric guitarists. The Piotrowicz axe, wired in ways that would raise eyebrows in the county ward for the criminally insane, is baking bread, changing money, hopping freight trains, releasing prisoners. Stangl, slouch on his axe either, chose wisely in this partnership, as usual. Hopefully there will be further documentation of this excellent trio.
