Activated. Midi horns and sine pads melt from drumz and again to jousting snarls of apathy. Lyrical, seasoned.

Columnic, wealthy in spirit. Cranial jam.

Yet another transcendent versh, guitarists stay on, chimes of peace into the conches of deliverance, rippling. Wackazoid gothic space, metal adjacent

music never stoppd tease into this crackling rarity! Back porch scheming for lived-in tracks, avenues of decay for the tires of hummers.

Wharf Rat

Jerry interrupts bill and mickey's drum solo at its peak with the slow, plaintive strumming of Wharf Rat, like we are doing a vaudeville or marx brothers bit. The version itself is amazing, nothing held back on the "i'll get up and fly away", and expansively vicious jamming. One of their best songs, period
Drums

Memorial Coliseum

Very nice 5-minute drum solo in between a mellow, ambient PITB and a wharf rat. The rubato, pulse-less feel throughout encourages both to be very sparse and experimental, building to awesome rolls and raucous stuff. Very musical, very thoughtful, very awesome Drums - another piece of this absolutely insane May 77 gig (all you have to say is May 77 and it's guaranteed to be dispensary, designer kush).
