New Canadiana :: JLK – Cold City Country

JLK
Cold City Country
(Hobo Cult Records)
Montreal, PQ
::web/sounds::


From the country karaoke of Aaron Levin:
Blown-out wastoid guitaroke from the femme half of Velvet Chrome. Using forgotten country tapes as a back-drop for her destructed guitar explorations, Jane L. Kasowicz croons for the disparate nihilism of urban cowboys. Swirling vocals float above dusted guitar riffs while the steel clamour of JLK’s exploration drills into your psyche. Her western reconnaissance hits hard mid-way through “Shake The Devil Out” and solidifies the experiment as a piece of reverberated genius. SADDLE UP.

New Canadiana :: AIDS Wolf – March to the Sea

AIDS Wolf
March to the Sea
(Skin Graft Records)
Montreal, PQ
::web/sounds::


From the rented catholicism of Aaron Levin:
March to the Sea explodes with seven oppressing manifestations of philosophical guitar violence. Crushing armies of viral slot machines channel Chloe’s undulating vocal pandemonium into an ear wrenching death-camp for cosmic noise hippies. Rhythmic death warrants churn this chaos into a miasma smelting your grey matter with fractal impurities. Days later their majestic penetration shall rear its polluted palette with beautiful results. Phenomenal. Canada’s most divisive band? Indeed. Their cover of Throbbing Gristle’s “Very Friendly is devastating. But I’ll save that for future enthusiasm. Until then…

New Canadiana :: Jerry Granelli – 1313

Jerry Granelli
1313
(Divorce Records)
Halifax, NS
::web/sounds::


From the mallets of Aaron Levin:
This pre-hippie legend left jazz’s softer pastures to join the Light Sound Dimension (LSD) ensemble. After a few marathons pairing amplified jazz with projection paintings (creating the first ever psychedelic light and sound event in 1967) Granelli made a few rounds with avant-heavyweights (read: Ornette Coleman, Anthony Braxton, et al) and suddenly sailing north to the sunny shores of Halifax for a full-time new age retreat. Having resided in Halifax since, it’s surprising he never released a solo drum record and we’re thankful the folks at Divorce Records were bold enough to capture Granelli’s percussive journey. Weaving between rhythmic corridors and metallic shimmer, 1313 is a brilliant exploration of percussion, sound, and the secret lives of glimmering minds. Cerebral expansion guaranteed.
