B&W xerox, with a 1"x1" insert explaining whats going down!
whats going down is a co op of Wyatt Howland (SkinGraft) and Andrew Kirschner (tooth, relentless corpse, Mistake label owner,)
ok so i would love to see a live set of these two, cause the recording does no justice,
there are a lot of peaks and you tend to lose all the highs,
side a starts with a claustrophobic muddle of sounds that lead you to believe you are being
buried alive in a pit of snakes, you can hear distant noise from outside the hole and the hiss
of snakes and a constant dropping and muffling tone with ever shovel of dirt,
the entire recording stays pretty quiet and staticy with the occasional helicopter noise,
there seems to be some maaa-ing and baaa-ing at the mid point,
which is followed by the sounding of an alarm, its kind of like a sheep factory melt down,
it teeters out into digital clipping&skipping, in come some moans and groans and the tape stops,
side b starts of with storm static,
a metal banging and clanging comes in like an old hermit looking for provisions in his shed,
the stereo is fun on this side, with the different sound sources in different ears,
static in one side and the metal banging loop in the other,
this side also has the peaking issues, but its not that big a deal,
overall they create a great atmosphere but the recording could have been a bit better,
mistake by the lake tapes (from Cleveland Ohio obviously)
run by Andrew and Zach troxell,
have recently secured connections with tomentosa and Hanson,
which not only means your doing something right,
but it also means it will be easy for you to purchase,
no reason not to grab one up,
contact and order here aswell...
