More magic from ex/future members of Duster, Mohinder, Valium Aggelein, Helvetia, Breasts, EIAFUAWN, Indian Summer and Her Space Holiday.
Rumor has it a CD reissue is coming one day from The Static Cult label.

Zuexeus “Consumed By Future”. Shit’s about to get loud. 1 man recording at home w/ a lot of instruments, feedback, screaming, all sorts of melody and one of my favorite guitar sounds in rock music. Chris AKA Zuexeus AKA Cornelius AKA Captain Speky are a huge huge part of why I loved living in North Carolina during the early 90s. Order anything and everything from Assorted Porkchops and relive my teens along with me.
1996 or ‘97

“Fricative” from 30 Second Motion Picture. Canadian math-rock at it’s finest.
Gauge, one of the most influential bands from Chicago (and to me in my early teens) has recently released a documentary. So worth it.
