about

Electric guitar flying apart in slow mass ejections of magnetized particles and molten slag. I find these recordings to be oddly relaxing (when they aren't actively trying to flay your flesh with hurricane-force metallic sound particle swarms). Recorded in... 1988? Cheap guitar, cheap volume pedal, cheap distortion pedal, cheap reel tape (previously used) cheap cassettes (previously used) and maybe an Ibanez stereo chorus. One dull-bladed Norelco floating head razor. Two long-suffering Otari MX5050 1/4" open reel tape machines. The Nakamichi cassette deck was awesome though!
