I'm in a FB group called temporary fandoms where we all listen to a full catalogue, an album a day. I'm curating C$C for a group in a week and stumbled across this while researching. Thanks - really enjoyed this. Maybe join the group if you read this in time! Cheers.

I also discovered this band vicariously through Devy. As a bassist they blew my mind—kind of like some experimental stuff John Paul Jones did back in the day. I love the weird Avant Garde cabaret feel the lyrics have at times and the weird, erratic compositions that sound like if Primus was taking a stab at being a sludge metal band and Les Claypool was an embittered alcoholic gripping his last thread of sanity with white knuckles. Angry, misanthropic showtunes. lol This is what a migraine headache (or maybe a hangover) sounds like.

If you haven't, definitely check out their Suck City EP. The title track (track 3) is especially noteworthy but "We Shall Be Changed" is great and has Lords of Acid vibes. All the lyrics are a sample of a televangelist (still trying to find out which one but no joy from Who Sampled Who). NEwayZ, nice to see someone talking about these guys, and fairly recently! Horns up, my dude, and rock on. 🤘
