This
is a limited edition EP from a new band featuring Guy (Orange Sunshine) on
vocals, Christian (owner of Who Can you Trust records) on drums, Janik on
guitars and Timothy on bass/guitar. It features 4 songs, 2 per side. It plays
at 33 RPM but the songs are short enough they for sure could have done 45RPM
for higher audio quality. Anyway, this is some low fi stuff, down and dirty rock
and roll starting off with Atlas Falling. This has quite a special sound production with
distant drums, loud guitar (at least one of them). Guy’s vocal is raw and not easy
to understand what he sings. Not an
untypical sound for Guy’s Motorwolf Studio in the Hague. Saturnus Tactiturn
slows things down a little with a heavier riff and plenty of small solos here
and there on this instrumental. Almost sounds like it was more an idea they did
not quite finish! Side B starts with Apollo Phoenix Rising another dirty rocker
a bit like Blue Cheer to start and then later is slows and there are some dual
guitar parts. The American Ruse (MC5)
ends this short record and you can sense they had fun with this. Great to see
Guy making music and this record is dedicated to the former Orange Sunshine
guitar player Arthur Van Berkel. Only
made in 200 copies. There is also a special edition in 30 with a different
sleeve.
