`: The first entry in Arachnidiscs' :'
`: split tape series comes :'
`: in a spraypainted cloth bag, and :'
`: showcases two very :'
`: different brands of experimental :'
`: folk music. This tape :'
`: contains sides one and two of the :'
`: series, the next tape :'
`: release (by Healthy Animal and :'
`: Summer Amp) is sides :'
`: three and four, etc. :'
`: Side 1 is a single 20-minute live :'
`: piece by Gown, backed :'
`: up by Omon Ra, entitled "Jake's :'
`: Strut." It's almost :'
`: impossible to listen to this :'
`: without being reminded of :'
`: Jandek, as the vocals have a :'
`: similar strained, sour :'
`: quality that takes a bit of getting :'
`: used to. I found it :'
`: very hard to listen all the way :'
`: through on first listen, :'
`: but it grew on me after a while. :'
`: When the amps are :'
`: turned on and drums come in, it :'
`: gets really good and :'
`: heavy for a few minutes, but it :'
`: still takes a bit of :'
`: stamina to get through the whole :'
`: piece at once. :'
`: Side 2 features five songs by an :'
`: artist named RobRobRob. :'
`: The first thing that came to mind :'
`: once the first track :'
`: started was something along the :'
`: lines of John Fahey on a :'
`: This Mortal Coil album. That is to :'
`: say, achingly :'
`: beautiful acoustic guitar work with :'
`: all manners of 4AD :'
`: production tricks. Instead of :'
`: ethereal female vocals, :'
`: exotic instrumentation or covers, :'
`: however, RobRobRob :'
`: mainly sticks to heavily reverbed :'
`: guitar and his own :'
`: shadowy vocals, which resemble Ian :'
`: Masters at his most :'
`: detached from reality. It's hard :'
`: to tell if heÆs :'
`: actually singing lyrics or not, so :'
`: in that way it also :'
`: bears a likeness to Panda Bear's :'
`: Young Prayer album. :'
`: The whole side is incredibly :'
`: lovely; I'm especially :'
`: impressed at how he uses reverb and :'
`: distortion. It :'
`: doesn't drown out the acoustic :'
`: sounds in noise; rather, :'
`: it accentuates them and takes them :'
`: to different places. :'
`: I also really enjoy the free- :'
`: flowing nature of this :'
`: release; it's all too fitting to :'
`: hear birds chirping :'
`: throughout some of the songs on :'
`: here. Lovely stuff. :'
