Ape Has Killed Ape ??? Distortion Clinic A-Library CD {self-released}

The Distortion Clinic finds a restrained ape shiftless & swaying to & fro on a morphine drip.?? Hallucinations aren???t uncommon in this state & the primates pleasant dreams have morphed into hazed subconscious absurdity.?? Echoes, random samples & odd voices frequently pour into this fantasy realm.?? Heavy tom action wallops out subtle nightmarish dance rhythms that prop up vivid distorto slide steel & Butthole-esque stoner country fuzz akin to Snog cumming on the Liars & Joy Division.?? No need to worry.?? This unconscious ape???s brainwaves are being monitored & documented stereophonically by??North Hollywood’s??scuzz rock trippy psych ward scientist Matt Stein.?? This ape might not be coherent enough to conduct a good old-fashioned luggage test but if he just might start screaming subconsciously like Dion McGregor so prepare for the weirdness.?? (For those who hate wordy reviews, this CD is semi-rockin??? with flanged & distorted guitar with strange samples & odd forays into slide steel country, OK?!)???? LANGUAGE: # 2, 7

    Just wanted to let you know this recording is by the original Ape Has Killed Ape from North Hollywood CA. The U.K. duo who have recently began using the name Ape Has Killed Ape have nothing to do with the Distortion Clinic CD.

  • and it was the original AHKA that appeared on one of the KFJC compilation CDs, I might add!

  • I can vouch for Guy Montag, but cannot excuse his pitiful research skills. He was unawares as it were that the U.K. duo was not the genuine original Ape Has Killed Ape. His accounts have been frozen, he’s been thoroughly spanked & the review has been updated correctly. Thanks for blowing the whistle.
