Dread

Necessary reissue of this crucial side by the greatest underground band of your lifetime. Still sounds like nothing else. David Keenan (This Is Memorial Device / Volcanic Tongue) Originally released on Hanson Records, American Tapes and Bulb Records in 2001. Filters circuit bent electronics, fried dub and the dystopian proto-punk of Cabaret Voltaire and Suicide through a distinctly Midwest USA sensibility. The result is a freak classic for the ages.This release continues to establish LOWER FLOOR MUSIC as a new home for the groups cultural vision, highlighting both new and archival work. Last year the label was minted with the release of their harrowing Undertow LP and the slowed down techno-meets-freefrom jazz devastation of the follow-up Strange Days II 12". This is the latest fork in a path the band started forging in 1998, releasing a massive amount of small run DIY basement recorded tape and CD-R missives, as well as higher profile albums for the likes of Sub Pop, Third Man and de Stijl.-CD includes bonus hidden track 'Sandpapered Eyes'01: Burn Your House Down02: Desert Of Glue / Wretched Hog 03: Half Animal, Half Insane04: Let The Smoke Rise05: Sandpapered Eyes (Bonus/Hidden Track)
