Eksra

(Ultramarine - EKSRA500) LP $25.00

The rumbling, delayed bass runs of Peter Blundell, against James Dunn's drum bursts that trigger an unruly ARP 2600, are entirely improvised and were recorded live with no overdubs in a makeshift studio in London in January 2009. Vocals, both muffled and shouted, get buried under a landslide of sounds, expressing suffocating alienation as well as today's over-communication that yields a helpless lack of communication. "Spasmodically captivating," in Arthurspeak.
