about

The first version of this piece was performed at the New Works Gallery in Toronto. It was an amateurish attempt to throw something heavier and unexpected into the set, but I was never able to come up with a suitable arrangement (or an adequately heavy sound). This version was particularly emasculated by our crappy PA, which had to be kept at a pitifully inadequate volume in order to prevent it from constantly feeding back. Fortunately, with the recording I can turn everything up loud enough to more closely approximate what it should have sounded like. I still like the riff and am determined to find an adequate use for it someday. Absurdist doom-rock is a genre that still waits to be fully explored (although the Finnish band Circle have made some brilliant tracks that probably could be placed in that category).
