released December 2, 2022

Moraine.
Teen Haters with one EYE.
Six arms, six strings.
Dis-chorded maladies, hum and dirge.
Defiler of fiddling Folkstars.
Neither in the Park, nor out of the Woods.
A softly extended middle digit.
The cleansing tsunami of stagnant port sludge.
Detritus left by a once frozen, now melting civilisation.
A sign o’ the times, beautifully catastrophic.
Electro-acoustic improvisations recorded live to digital recorder, Helen’s cottage, Lyttelton, NZ.
26th September 2020.

-Helen Greenfield: amplified cello
-Peter Porteous: electric guitar
-Peter Wright: electric guitar
/ Spliced & diced for cassette tape by P.W.

Mind blowing. Exactly what I need to hear right now. Not even sure how I got this but it’s clearly the beginning of a deep dive for me. Came in from a walk after hearing 3xstrlptrcks43 & ran into my basement to try to play a cover of it. I failed but that’s ok. biscuitgecko
