Flowery Speech Country Time Edition 1: Whip Appeal Cut Flowers

 


Whip Appeal can be described as american freight train wreck country music with the paranoid, lonely and outsider class. Stumbling upon this band will remind you of crate digging for vhs tapes in the record store, or all of the forgotten flea markets and shows in your town where nothing happens much anymore.  Whip Appeal has been a personal favorite former Massachusetts band of mine and with releases like Cut Flowers being graced from unknown land you can’t blame me. Their style of somber country intertwined with folk and rock and roll is a pure blend of classic you can’t miss out on.

Fiddling, guitaring, bassing and drumming along with singing, wailing, crying and yelling proficiently succeeds throughout this album with some fantastic rockabilly sound delights on all fronts. Shoutout James Coarse on vocals and guitar Lily Fine on vocals and bass Grape Kennedy on vocals Barstool “Dillon” Brown on fiddle and Lefty Bill Ore on drum for making this wonderful album happen.

Underground Experimental Experience Edition 1: Ben Wetherbee / Suncook Symphony + Deftly Demolition / Solypsis REVIEW

Image
  Hello readers,  Welcome to my corner to review anything experimental, weird, primitive, revolutionary, boggling, provoking confusing and more. So without further ado, read the first edition of Underground Experimental Experience. Ben Wetherbee / Suncook - Atomic Fiddle If I had to describe Ben Wetherbee’s side of this gem in 3 words I’d go with:  Rhythmic fiddle panic A subtle and intriguing, uneasy feeling is possessive over my brain throughout this entire one-track recording. Truly, atomic fiddle feels like someone’s entire body, psyche, every organ and muscle has been dedicated to composing a solo horror movie soundtrack for 33 minutes. I adamantly enjoyed every second of it. Within the context of the other Ben Wetherbee material I have heard, he’s proven to be extensively versatile and has shown work in bluegrass, freak folk, square dancing, free improvisation, experimental (didn’t see that one coming), and plenty other subgenres and generic brand. What impressed me...

Underground Experimental Experience Edition 2: The Cult Phenomenon of Buttersnakes

Image
  Buttersnakes has to be one of my favorite outsidercountry-comedy-parody-cult collection of nonsensical songs on my radar in a while. Founded by two longtime Massachusetts psychedelic and outsider musicians, Jeff Unfortunately (or Jeff Gallagher) and Ethan of psychedelic noise band AD.UL.T.  This project really captivated me from the get go with tracks such as “Dump truck blues (Springsteen version)”, “The Brutal Gangland Style Slaying of Tony Rigatoni”, “Fitchburg” and “Fla Keys Tourism Theme”. The unhinged and carefree nature of Buttersnakes will leave most listeners confused but myself and maybe few others completely sold on the slithering delight which is the mysterious partially available catalogue of Buttersnakes.  It feels as if I’m finding obscure deep cuts of 80’s commercials, or maybe walking through audio vintage stores when I tune in to "very snakes vol 1", "snakes alive,” or "acknowledge the snake” on bandcamp  and their cassettes thro ugh seeing their...

Underground Experimental Experience Edition 4: Shane Jones Move Aside I Have Discovered the Zeal We Will Use The Will For Real

Image
  Alarm alarm the single most impressive Casio SKS Music sound adventure has arrived with Shane Jones on “Move aside I Have Discovered the Zeal We Will Use For Real.”   Boisterous beats and alarming loops will encompass you while you delve into this abrasive sound corroboration of keyboard delights. The best part about the album for me is that it is reminiscent of playing Castlevania hooked up to distortion pedals and a spaghetti strainer which I’ve never done but now want to accomplish. Auditory crunching and paddling is prevalent on these recordings and also utilizes looping to interact with the listener in activities such as wondering whats coming from your speaker or maybe nodding in agreement.  I also find everything about this soup to be tasty and delicious! That sentence will generate in your brain if you listen to Move Aside I Have Discovered the Zeal We Will Use For Real. Especially with it’s profound personality the album will become soup, as it always happens w...
