A fair question, I seem to be getting a lot of their stuff lately.

They've been around for about 30 years and have around 20 albums, but I only discovered them a few months ago, so I've been playing catch up. They're a trio of 2 guitars and drums from New Zealand, playing a kind of avant noise that has elements of AMM, Faust, and early Sonic Youth.

It has its moments, but definitely not their best; however the Count Of Tuscony is a winner and Portnoy's drumming on that track is damn near perfect. :)
Also, this was an album that released in a special edition format as well where the 3rd disc is an instrumental cd and I think the album sounds much better without vocals. You'll also appreciate Wither more without LaBrie's sub-par vocals on it. ;)

Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

Thought I'd end the year with some purchasements:

Jade Warrior - s/t
Steppenwolf - s/t
Fela Kuti - Beasts of No Nation
The Residents - Stars and Hank Forever

Siltbreeze records are amazing! They released a lot of early Dead C stuff, and my own band's debut LP (SB-18)

If you don't have it, you need Harsh 70s Reality (SB-11/12)

Just received Caillou's cd along with Cardiacs' Sing To God and A Little Man And A House...
