Wally Shoup, Chris Corsano and Paul Flaherty make up this screamin' free punk jazz liquid solid noize trio captured LIVE 'in your face' style in Seattle, WA. Totally improvised double sax and drum explosions that break down into duos and solos and re-ignite as trio howlin' paint splattered madness gone butt-naked wilder. Recorded at an art gallery with artwork melting off the walls and frightened fans nervously mopping their furrowed blood-stained brows (they were especially afraid one or both of the sax players would expire -- it did feel like attempted sax suicide), this limited LP, which will be the final volume in the Records label plan, represents one half of the concert that emerged on that unsuspecting evening. The other half is being released at the same time (relatively) on the Tyfus label in Finland as Blank Check. Thus creating another pair of sister releases much like the Last Eyes (Records #7) & Steel Sleet (TYFUS) LP pair released in 2005. The 'Check' pair will serve as the document of the only event this trio has played to date, and it presents another blistering historical document of an underground movement that continues to go un-recognized and even un-noticed in most of the so-called civilized baby starvin' world. Free music -- hard to believe it can still piss people off just by rearing its ugly head -- but someone's gotta stand up and throw the metaphysical psycho love bombs -- thankfully we still have volunteers like these notorious three to kick around the turntable.
