desmadrados soldados de ventura: dieter dierks jerks

Live In Manchester. Recorded by Phil Todd. Limited to 100 copies only. Includes beautiful silk screened artwork by Alex Humphreys. "Of course, guitars have long been middle-brow targets for commentators as somehow signifying everything that was cock-bound and self-aggrandizing and technically impudent about rock music. But when it's played like this, with a blurring of technique that allows a bunch of northern punks access to the combined freak potential of more than a half century of electric six-string excess, it's a reminder of the electric guitar's uncanny ability to respond not just to where it's been, but to where it's at." --David Keenan, The Wire; "I can't remember the last time I felt myself overcome by so many conflicting emotions -- awe, excitement, envy, exasperation -- and yet it all coalesced into a contented, feverish fervor. I cannot tell you how great a feeling that is -- a near robotic state, the only movements being to get up and change the record... So if you are into your overtly intricate, caterwauling, explosive, experimental improvisational psych rock jams, this album is your ticket to Valhalla." --Sonic Masala
