Cleveland, OH based wordsmith Matthew Wascovich leads this amorphous unit of avant-rockers in a noisy fusion of hardcore poetry and houserocking skronkitude. SST fans be warned! |
Raw, h igh energy tracks loaded with avant-rock jamming and intense lyrical explorations that will remind most snobs vaguely of a more straight-ahead rockin', Stooges damaged Saccharine Trust, but SOT really has its own direction. Featuring Andrew Klimek (X-Blank-X, Johnny & The
Dicks), Scott Pickering (My Dad Is Dead, Happy Flowers), Weasel Walter (on guitar, bass, drums) and many others. "... (some) freeform skronk . . . other parts are great rolling-CLE-word-spews in the Laughner/Kryss tradition, with instrumental moves jacked from Death of Samantha and Rocket From The Tombs, then updated like crazy. Crazy." - Byron Coley, Archivist. The group met and recorded tracks during 2007-2008 in Cleveland and Oakland. The album was mastered by Weasel Walter. The cover art is by Devendra Banhart. |
