Batman vs Predator ??? s/t A-Library CD {self-release}

A duo in the studio by night & a dynamic trio by, well??? night.?? Batman vs Predator is the alien vision of dark knights Mikey (bass & sound fx) and Shaun (drums & noise) out of Santa Rosa.?? Secret identities be damned.?? These guys go epic on this instrumental mathematical experimental post/noise rock opus similar to Don Caballero, Tomahawk or Battles.?? 43 minutes that explodes all over the place.?? Vast ranging tempo variations, spasms & hiccups super charged & improvised.?? Midway through the frequency shifts to noisier discord, drowning your ears in clamor currents.?? When that dies out, voice samples intrude and strange effects plague the senses.?? Echoing repetitive effects, radio signal interruptions, distorted electronics, static, feedback, looped squealing & screams seem to finish out the freakiness.?? I suppose this CD???s first half might be the Batman portion & the latter half the Predator end??? Don???t know, but I think many will enjoy this warzone battle royal a lot better than any Hollywood franchise.????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
