Wolf Eyes & Black Dice
A real chaotic recording of these two superbands, recorded live in a small basement with all ingredients. Nice Noise as we use to say!! CD features 2 extra tracks

Way-above-average improv from Japan. Electric strings (guitars?), saxophones, electronics, and samples move with unexpected ease frommeditative passages to intense blow-outs to free scatter. Sax player Yoshinori Yanagawa plays with the same sort of depth and passion as Albert Ayler-no fakin, no academic rendering. But hes only part of a much larger whole. The wash of precision rumble and sound-tweaking that surrounds everything creates chaos from an intensely ordered technology. Strange (not wei…
