TALIBAM! Buns and Gutter

Description

Free improv by this duo from New York. Think about 2 drunk but talented musicians and their friends and you'll get close to what this CD really is...

Talibam! is one of the most potent and fascinating bands in today's music scene. The five plus years of interplay between Mottel and Shea has created one of the most unique and exciting live shows and some of the most powerfully recorded documents of any era. At a time when most culture sticks to conservative niche opportunities, Talibam! is interested in expansion and exploration; they manage to part the sea by not sticking to genre, aesthetic predisposition or the usual norms of what being a band is. More inclined to put on a show that any and all will like, and not be stymied by 'avant' type-casting, they have won over both unsuspecting and in the 'know' audiences worldwide. The energy of Kevin Shea's full steam drumming is not to be missed, nor is the primal tone of Mottel's synth run through a Marshall Half Stack.

The music includes a 34 minute outtake from the evolvingear.com sessions, and a 2 minute no-wave outtake from the Ordination sessions. The package design is a tribute to our D.I.Y. colleagues.
