Album Notes & Community Reviews
Armed only with a heavily modified, four-string acoustic guitar, the former Harry Pussy frontman delivers a staggeringly intense solo performance. 'How the Thing Sings' completely deconstructs traditional acoustic blues through violently chaotic, raw improvisation and anguished, wordless vocalizations.
