MOUTHUS - The Long Salt
imprec082 - CD - $11.99 
This album is a return to more abrasive and heavy Mouthus territory after forays
into acoustic instrumentation and, yes, a Fleetwood Mac cover on
their recent Troubleman full-length.
Free/tribal percussion spatter 'n clatter duels with endlessly
mutating three chord sludge-riffage beneath thick, poison clouds
of delayed-out vocal groan. Truly CHOCK full of manic bad-mood energy
but maybe psych-droney and resin-soaked enough for the new crop
of crunchier noise-heads to nod to as well. Electric guitars strung
with duct tape and drums equipped with hundred-year old heads are
jettisoned into deep space and dynamited, combusting so vividly
that the afterimages soak our retinas with mandalas of interwoven
earthworms and beer funnels for hours afterwards. We pass the savings
on to YOU!
The Long Salt also features Samara Lubelski.

Reviews/Features
"It's messy, beautiful and recalls all the effects and variables
of a psychedelic painting or a hyper-real physical experience"-
Brainwashed
"A bottomless well of crashing jolts, roaring accelerations
and rumbling cacophany. Mouthus have enough wordless verbiage to
fill all the empty heads that could use it" The Wire
