Applied for a job today that was essentially 5-6 communications jobs in one. Salary? Abysmal!

Animal, Surrender! :: A Boot For Every Bane

Not sure how many eight-string bass / pipe organ / drums trios there are out there, but I’m going to go ahead and declare the Brooklyn-based Animal, Surrender! as the very best of them all.

Shrunken Elvis ignite a mind-meld of pedal steel, synths, and guitars on their s/t debut, a slyly adventurous and immersive album that fuses languid soundscapes and kosmische vistas with elements of krautrock, spiritual jazz, and ambient & electronic music.

Grabbed this during a recent fantagraphics sale and it’s ridiculously good — Schulz should be mentioned alongside any/all great American artists of the 20th century.

listening to "Trav'lling Song" now — never heard it! Definitely "A Sailor's Life" vibes ... do you think they were they riffing specifically on it or is just coincidence?

I've never seen The Drowning Pool — worth checking out? Always wondered why there haven't been more MacDonald adaptations ...
