Weasel Walters self described "guitar freak out band": heavy dissonant loud crazy guitar, pounding beats provided by Mark Edwards (a noted NYC free jazz drummer). Walter is famed for his band Flying Luttenbachers and spastic No Wave work with Lydia Lunch. Here the complex beats and meter changes are joined with huge bass and prominent female voice that soars and shrieks at times. Intense. Shades of Melt Banana, Polly Styrene here and there, Siouxsie on bad acid. For fans of losing their mind.

1) (1:56) urgent, insane, intense 2)* (3:37) bass more prominent, pounding 3) (2:27) multifaceted with lots of dissonance, one second Siouxsie the next Birthday Party 4) (2:45) driving and pounding again 5) (2:49) bass driven, pounding, hard to call this slower but compared to rest 6) (3:15) tribal and drum oriented, the jazz complexities come through here 7) (2:25) pounding more tribal 8)* (2:54) more of a driving dark rock to this, driving fuzz bass. 9)* (2:52) disjunct for sure, vocals harmonize, cool 10) (3:36) more insanity 11) (2:36) FCC 12) (2:12) head nodding pounding
