SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM
NEW ALBUM IS OUT - OCT 25, 2004
music that not only pushes boundaries but breaks them down with an axe!
There are enough ideas in this album to fill nine albums, one per track.
meticulously ballistic, poetically cataclysmic rock with an extremely heavy percussion focus (a la Moe! Staiano and Frank Grau) and the requisite haywire time signatures and syncopation more commonly associated with Idiot Flesh--this band's predecessor (from whom Sleepytime inherits two members: Nils Frykdahl and Dan Rathbun)--with the gracefully dissonant harmonies and adventurous counterpoint of Carla Kihlstedt's electric violin and wraith-like vocals backed by the ominous emanations from Dan's home-made contraptions; methodical madness or lunatic logic?
