Side 2 of the LP is perhaps even more fierce, as it captures PCWS and Yonkers' first live appearance together at the first Million Tongues festival at the Empty Bottle in Chicago, also in 04. Clocking in at nearly the 20 minute mark, this shredding bit of synapse-frying abandon is simply titled "No Urge," and was recorded by the late Malachai Ritscher.

  For those of you who don't know, Malachai Ritscher was the fellow who self-immolated in Chicago to protest the Iraq war. . .

After some 5 years in the making, at last the first official collaboration between Chicago acid-punks Plastic Crimewave Sound and Minneapolis noise/folk guitar legend Michael Yonkers has come to fruition!
Sir Yonkers should need no introduction, as his godly unreleased-in-the-day album, "Microminiature Love" blew the doors off anyone who was lucky enough to pick up the DeStijl LP or Sub Pop CD reissue. This seriously ahead-of-it's-time, pre/post-punk, jittery noise-rock sounds as fresh today as when it was recorded back in 1968. Yonkers 70s folk LPs also continue to impress (and to be reissued) with their mix of homemade electronics and poignant melodies. More recently, Michael has returned to and refined his buzzing fuzz guitar sound to new heights, with his tuneful-yet-bellowing voice often adorning the skree. Numerous releases, from LPs to CDRs, over the past decade have re-established Yonkers as one of the world's most distinct and uncompromising underground voices.
Plastic Crimewave Sound have been bringing it since 2001, with their scuzzed out brand of free-fest psychedelia, putting the "rock" back into spacerock on some 4 Lps, split releases, and too many other appearances to mention. Collaborations/tours with Oneida, Comets on Fire, Ya Ho Wha 13, Simply Saucer, and countless others have spread their bad trip gospel. Leader Plastic Crimewave also is the brainchild of the acclaimed Galactic Zoo Dossier Magazine published by Drag City.
The sessions for this unearthly collaboration began back in 2004, and a seemingly perfect one it is--driving guitars, reverbed static, rippling electronics, and Yonkers' urgent vocals meld into a freaked-out stew that truly bleeds out of one's speakers. Side 2 of the LP is perhaps even more fierce, as it captures PCWS and Yonkers' first live appearance together at the first Million Tongues festival at the Empty Bottle in Chicago, also in 04. Clocking in at nearly the 20 minute mark, this shredding bit of synapse-frying abandon is simply titled "No Urge," and was recorded by the late Malachai Ritscher.
Don't miss out on this limited LP in an edition of 500, sure to go as fast as Yonkers and PCWS's other now out-of-print releases.

I watched "Little Dieter Needs to Fly" last week, totally worth watching, maybe multiple times. . . Only 70 minutes too. . .  I believe this is on Netflix.

Bring the military home, close our borders and stop tax credits for outsourcing and apply tax credits to businesses that sell American . . .

It's not that hard.  Fuck everyone else, let's concentrate on America for a while!
