Kevin Drumm

2010 release. An expanded and definitive double LP edition of Kevin Drumm's groundbreaking first album, originally released on Perdition Plastics in 1997. Featuring some of the most fiercely abstract and organic guitar work ever heard, Drumm's debut is both jarring and completely alien. Dubbed by some as the greatest prepared guitar record ever recorded it prefigured (and continues to trump) almost an entire decade or so of contemporary "out" music that would follow. Beautiful and completely essential. This edition includes an entire fourth side of previously unreleased recordings from Drumm's personal archive, all recorded in the same era as the original album. It also includes entirely new artwork featuring the body of the actual guitar used to record the album. Kevin Drumm - guitar. Recorded directly to tape in the fall of 1996; Tracks A1-C1 were first issued in 1997 (Perdition Plastics). 180 gram vinyl; Includes two full-color inserts; Includes download code; Heavy "tip-on" gatefold jacket with spot gloss and matte finishes, textured de-bossing.
