Just completed our first rehearsal of the year. Sounded good to us. Hope the people who were hanging art in the space while we practiced thought the same.

Just posted a new single called “Salvaged” which is an out-take from a live recording from 2007 with additional treatments and mixing in 2009. This track is availble as a 320k bit rate download on this site as well in our music player on Facebook and Last.fm

We have decided to create a podcast as a vehicle to deliver recordings of our live performances and other miscellaneous experiments. Secondly, we will be creating periodic episodes that feature audio from other artists that we collaborate with or who inspire us. We would like to extend an invitation to others to share with us their original experiments for possible inclusion in one of these podcasts.

You can subscribe to the podcast via iTunes at:

We will be posting clips from the new album in the next few days. Stay tuned.

This is a demonstration of a Drone Commander made by Eric Archer (ericarcher.net) being run through one of the new Gristleizers made by Endagered Audio (smashingguitarsasheville.com). The original Gristleizer was created by Chris Carter of Throbbing Gristle and Chris & Cosey (thanks Chris). Also involved in this piece is a cruddy stereo reverb made by Realistic.
