ASSO 001LP
2008 release. This is the second release by mysterious Seattle assemblage,
The Sea Donkeys
. "
... a divinely ragged live blast that combines a more garage rocking taking on the communal folk breakdowns of
The Cherry Blossoms
with killer
Shaggs
/
Godz
-style drum violence, drunk choir vocals and the kinda fidelity that makes it all sound like a great
VU
bootleg. There are inspired covers of material like 'It's A Rainy Day' by
Faust
and
Albert Ayler
's 'Ghosts' (which wins out over countless lame indie free jazz versions by re-staging it as a melancholy avant rock dirge as played by
Don Van Vliet
and the
Maher Shalal Hash Baz
orchestra) and the more rocking sections are a near perfect amalgam of primitive avant brut, stumble punk oblivion and beautiful melodic chord solos. Recommended
. " --David Keenan, Volcanic Tongue
