What happens when two stars collide? An interstellar collaboration out of this galaxy! Here in this new fantastic LP from Virginia Genta (of Jooklo fame) and Chris Corsano (arguably considered 'the last drummer on earth'), both musicians put blood, sweat, and lots of muscle into three new wildly charged cuts!!!! The album begins at sunset on a terrace in Lisbon (Summer 2008) with ferocious sax and drums escalating as the sun sets with Chris' incredible drum solo leaving everyone in a trance, while Virginia's vocals evoke the spirits of the birds who join this bizarre duo hypnotized, creating some of the weirdest sounds ever listened! Turn to B side and you are in the streets of Marrakesh, with cobras spitting at you from baskets, donkeys staggering past under the weight
of gigantic loads, men crowding around cock fights, yelling at their bets under the din. Then the final moment, with Genta blowing like a volcano in eruption, and Chris' hyperkinetic drumming collapsing into pure maniacal machine-gun destruction! Terrific!
