Joey Arkenstat's new album, "BANE"
I just picked up Joey Arkenstat's new album, "BANE" and holy shit it smokes. Some strange psychedelic way out there stuff. Really cool flowing madness. Mike Gordon is in the line up & produced the album. Everyone should hear this. It's a trip, no pun intended. Lyrics are almost like chants that repeat over and over through out the album, but slowly warp to other words that make the meaning of the chant / sentence something completely different, yet sounding very similar to the ear. I've never heard anything like this. The entire album almost has a kind of tribal psychedelic vibe. Very unusual. Joey's bass lines has to heard to understand. Too good for words. Popi - I bet you'd like this one.
