and it’s a deadly combo to the uninitiated
RONDOS - A Black And White Statement
the Ken Rock single and the Big Brothel single
Sparkling timbres dance above interlocking rhythmic patterns moored by sparse yet propulsive percussion (“Pedal Tone Dance” and the title track)
Long lost first recordings from 2001
FLAT WORMS - s/t LP jazz and it’s a deadly comboIncludes d l code. Highly recommended. Will Ivy (Dream Boys, Wet Illustrated, Bridez), Justin Sullivan (Kevin Morby, The Babies) and Tim Hellman (Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, Sic Alps). This LA post punk debut is a buzz saw wave of feedback tipped riffs into the middle distance, the smog choked sunset receding in the rearview. A little Wipers, a little Wire, and a lot of late capitalist era anxious energy. Whoa.
