Now Playing

"I'm hesitant to describe much of the music, as the point seems to be less the results than the process. So try listening to the process: the way each player responds to each other, the way Byars reworks those conversations, and the way each recording feels like a true experiment, an exercise in seeing what can happen when creative people get to be creative together."

"On Live At Horse Hospital London 11/13/25, Byars is joined by saxophonist Alex McKenzie and guitarists Mike O'Malley (both of caroline) and guitarist Tara Cunningham. The rising and receding tides of riffs and bleats on "11" suggest a tense US Maple or Storm & Stress rehearsal. "1111" begins in John Zorn territory but with a lighter, fizzier touch, eventually drifting into the sublime. When the guitar chords ring out of this mire, it's as though they are beaming in from the cupola of some far distant storybook castle."
