Eats Tapes - Dos Mutantes

Eats Tapes triumphantly return with ten relentless brain smashers! The groups second full-length, Dos Mutantes, features a battery of hardware sequencers, synths, modified drum machines, cassette players and a midi Nintendo. Eats Tapes specialize in noisy, spazzy techno bangers with irresistible hooks. Fusing a variety of influences, they comfortably straddle the San Francisco Bay Areas myriad club, psychedelic noise, and art-rock scenes. Album opener No Part Name lays down the genetically modified blueprint: techno tropes devolve into a mutant acid strain; tasty bass chunks recombine with scalp-scalding nintendo noise and searing feedback. Letting up midway through the album on the midtempo house groover Lemon Drop and the down-home studio hoedown Band Practice  the assault resumes on Ive Become Cretin, featuring smokin guest licks by psychedelic shredder Nate Boyce (Matmos). This multimedia onslaught also features radioactive wrap-around six-panel digipak cover artwork drawn by mutant mastermind Mat Brinkman and Boyces video for the track Tenderizer.
