Omar Rodriguez Lopez: Se Dice Bisonte, No Bufalo

lopezSo in high school I had a couple of At the Drive In records and though they were nice but nothing I was bananas about. I listened to Relationship of Command recently to find it a bit of a one trick pony. I was pretty skeptical to begin with, considering Mars Volta was so poo poo crappy. If you are expecting either of those bands here, you are going to be disappointed, or happy depending on what you thought of them. There is much more variety and a lot of creativity. The production is detailed, but not overdone. This type of music, a certain spaced out Carlos Santana remixed by Giorgio Moroder, is great and probably most suited to Lopez’s abilities, though it will probably be the least recognized of all of his works :: Omar Rodriguez Lopez: Se Dice Bisonte, No Bufalo - Gold Standard Laboratories/Cargo. --- Ashton Montrone

MOUTHUS

Best of the recent Our Mouth stuff is the first Sullivan solo CD-R. Sullivan's comes under the name Eskimo King, and /Tooth-Shaped Migration/ is five thick, detailed chunks of sound spread over a quick 17 minutes. What I dig most about Sullivan is his wide-open outlook on what sounds are worth making. Mouthus may concoct a lot of deep, textured noise, but they also use acoustic guitar loops, dirgey metal-like stomps, polyrhtyhmic meditations, busted rock riffs, and tons more.

„Nein, nein, kein Soundtrack! Wir kombinieren nur die Stücke auf unseren Alben - wir schneiden erstmal alles auf Band mit, um dann, vielleicht Monate später, zu sagen: Oh, das hier passt ja thematisch zu diesem Stück und auch zu jenem. Oder: Dieses Stück würden zu jenen Anderen passen, wäre es nicht so grottenschlecht. Also: Trash it.” Brian Sullivan/HE Interview
