Phil's been trying to push this one on the lads all week... 'You might like this..' is what he said. He was right, I do like it. It's fucking madcap madness this one, that's why I like it. San Francisco Water Cooler (from here on referred to as SFWC) make an amazing, scuzzy, psyched out version of traditional garage rock that sounds like it was recorded for a quid in less time than it takes to perform the songs yet it probably took a fucking millenia to put together and cost the lads a fortune in quarter inch tape. It spews forth from the sound system and brutalizes the mind with its playful takes on what some might consider pop music. It's twisted shit yo! SFWC feature a couple of the guys from Residual Echoes so that gives you a basic idea of what to expect but (from what I can recall of Residual Echoes) this is probably better.... And it's got cool guitar solos on it too. A rare treat.
Presenting to you, "II" the second album by San Francisco Water Cooler. Steaming, stewing, cooking and curdled over a yearlong tape-spliced journey to our minds' molten core, and on our newly minted Sun Sneeze record label, a dynamic breadth of meter-melted, noise-filtered psych-pop gems is searing into your psychic aperture. Sunny and bastardized, blissed-out vibe-rays meander into a pitch-black trip and back to your wildest sugartown dreams.
Truth is for philosophers. This burning-light trio includes Jerry Encoe and David Novick, once-original members of Residual Echoes, and recently, Andy Pastalaniec, that sonofabitch who unleashed their first, heavy-head-acclaimed debut and offers some kinda’ direction sometimes maybe.
Our new record awaits your rotten ear drums. Our last: exclaimed from the peaks by the likes of Mr. Siltbreeze himself, Thurston Moore & Byron Cooley, Julian Cope, and oh geez, even more. Dj Rick said "It might just be my hometown pride, but Rocker's Escape must be vaunted to the status of DECADE DEFINING CLASSIC." Well it's a new decade, brace your brain.
