  1. Kind of All Stars from Alabama with some newer names (most likely still "new" after decades). And I'm really curious about the 'armpit' ;-)
    Thank you, Nick.

  2. This collective of musicians from Alabama is definitely interesting even if my ears can't enter in all of what they have recorded, this post makes me remain of Rotcod Zzaj that you posted Nick almost one year ago, even if the music provided here is different. I spent part of this beautiful sunny afternoon doing some research that brought me from Rev Fred Lane to the pataphysical philosophy of Alfred Jarry. I never thought that some people made a certain link between the pataphysical and the art brut. In a way this helps me to understand more the artistic attitude of all those musicians that in a way can be understood as a sort of art brut.
