It
has been some years since I heard a new ST37 record. These guys have been
around for a long time now and just keep doing their own thing. The band has
released material on lots of labels but this is the biggest for them, signing
with Cleopatra out of California. This track has some cool artwork on the
inside by my friend Chrstian Mumford (lives in Norway). The CD features 12
tracks in about an hour and starts with a strange intro and then busts right
into Down on Us, which is quite psychedelic with two very different guitars
split far out to the left and right channels and bass drums and vocals in the
middle. Some electronics flow in and out here and there. The entire record is a
pretty trippy adventure in sound, strange vocals and lots of cool guitar parts.
You have to love the song titles like Odd Ass Silence, Eroica Horns, Magnetic
Amphibian hydrated Gills and The pit out Back! There are quite a few guests on
the record mainly adding horns here and there on some tracks. Anyway, this is a
really trippy record. Glad the band hasn’t gone mainstream! Enjoy…..
