Album Notes & Community Reviews

Featuring the deeply eccentric guitar work of Eugene Chadbourne and the manic production aesthetics of Kramer, the trio deconstructs classic rock and roll tropes through a lens of chaotic noise. The abrasive, highly unpredictable album serves as a bizarre, avant-garde parody of American roots music.
