Exusamwa – “Phase IV” – [100% Breakfast]

abacus   7/25/2012   A Library, CD

Venture into the depths of this labyrinthine anthill where the insect armies prepare for invasion. These ants mean business with their rip-roaring post punk assault complete with raw, relentless riffage, tiny, pipsqueak voices, and plenty of searing feedback from the cricket section. There are lulls between the ceaseless cockroach moshpit; the first two phases??are brief soundclip interludes; also, on track 10 we get a nice little ladybug lullaby and track 15 gives us some space pop with demento vocals crawling into our aural cavities beckoning our communication. With 15 tracks in 20 minutes this moves quick and tracks all the way through so you could play tracks individually (with appropriate fading in/out) or play the whole thing as one big anthropod opera. Beware the rise of the bugs….PHASE IV NOW!!!
