about

Lots and lots of distorted feedback guitar, achieved with, among other things, a really powerful magnet. Recorded around the same time as material for Notes From Underground this track appeared on a sampler named SCREAM (Sampler Containing Really Exciting American Music) produced by Peter Gordon and Ira Robbins. We can't recall how they found us or found out about us. The mix differs from that on our later EP, Burying The Carnival.

Formed in 1983 when Mel Eberle and Steve Jones started collaborating, occasionally teaming up with Nick Rudd, Glenn Graham, Tim Hanafee and others.
