ONE FELL SWOOP - Tales Of Desperate Survivors On The Edge Of Reality

A short 5-song e.p. ,due to the recording device fucking up on us ,but then turned into our recording device for the slowest band ever ,Quaalude! This really does contain what the title implies, songs that tell of extremely desperate people ,in survival situations.Shane Carwile plays trumpet(!!?!!) on much of this ,and Billy Drake and Sean Sommers also play and sing on thease tracks.Ed ,Joel ,and Chipmonk ,just keep the music flowing ,and spewing lyrics about characters we know ,like, Pukeboy & Subhuman ,Jimmy Cochran ,and riders of the Special Olympics Bus ,amongst others. There is only one more studio recording before the tapes go to live gig recordings. Cover painting by John Wilford. Recorded 1/14/1992 ,20 years ago today!!

MICHAEL ALTON GRIFFIN-excerpts from the chip davis archives

this solo artist is heavily into orgonomics,and power electronics.some of this reminds me of 80's synth and new wave,mostly cabaret voltaire and d.a.f.,but i hear other influences as well.some spoken parts,guy gentry guests on guitar on one track,jimmy cochrane on keys on another track,very intriguing and nostalgic,reminds me of the 80's,waiting around some downtown area anywhere in florida,for the club to open for the punk show we were going to see.mike wrote some notes to this ,in the zip file.i have a tape of a few of his bands,schmutzigmuzik,vitreous humor,and gutbucket,that i will post at another time,none of which sound anything like this.very futuristic and spacey,yet old wave/new wave,the 80's is the decade that's repeating now,right?,so this is kinda topical!very enjoyable listen.
