"The Some Of All Things or: The Healing Power Of Scab Picking"
Even if it could be debilitated, it's teeth are already lodged deep enough to
rip a healthy piece of the empire apart as it falls. Carbon Carousel's untamed,
unpolished, unapologetic and ravishingly abrasive sound is more of an attack on
your whole psychosomatic network, than it is something to nonchalantly listen to
while you do the dishes. Starting out purely improvising in a free
jazz-meets-freestyle rap-meets-noise rock-meets-anything they feel like playing
at the moment-frame, Carbon Carousel has expanded and refined their ideas of
compositional improvisation into songs, and sketches there of, that explore the
dynamics of all feeling, never sacrificing intensity for appeal. With Jeremy
Ylvisaker's biting guitars screeching through layers of feedback, Casey
O'Brien's heavy stomach punching bass, J.T. Bates' overtly manic drumming, and
Micheal Larsen's 'out of his face and into yours' vocal delivery, you get the
melodic and the dissonant, the loud and the soft, the joy and the pain, the
panic and the reserve, and the collective attempt to smash a hole in the petty,
contrived, edgeless core of modern pop music.
