Catalog #: NEU 001EP
"Second release from the new Newcastle-based No-Fidelity label, after the first recording from scene-legend Sir Richard Bishop (of the Sun City Girls) sold out in a whistle. Something a bit special. Having built their career upon a reputation for incendiary live appearances and a heap of self-released CD-Rs and cassettes, Leicester's Volcano The Bear have slowly been gathering steam, becoming one of this country's most exciting experimental improv outfits. This startling new 7" for No-Fi showcases the group at their most abstract, the A-side a sinister brew of creaking violin and string plucks. It sounds something like No-Neck Blues Band collaborating with Wolf Eyes on a re-take of the Saragossa Manuscript soundtrack. The B-side goes further down the path paved by Olsen and co. with some metallic clanking and utterly gnarled noise eruptions."
