Blues Control - Blues Control (CD, Vinyl LP)

BLUES CONTROL MIGHT JUST BE THE MISSING LINK BETWEEN VAN HALEN AND LEGENDARY EXPERIMENTALIST HENRY FLYNT. THEY ARE A DUO. LEA CHO PLAYS SWANK BUT GROUNDED ATMOSPHERIC KEYBOARD PARTS (THINK HAROLD BUDD), THROUGH WHICH GUITAR PLAYER AND MANIPULATOR OF ASSORTED JUNK-ON-TABLE RUSS WATERHOUSE CUTS, WHITTLES AND LAYS TO WASTE. IT’S A HAZY, SPACED WORLD THAT EXISTS BETWEEN FUZZED DISTORTION, JABBERING ELECTRONICS, AND A LAZY, STAY-IN-BED PSYCHEDELIC GLAZE, WITH RHYTHMIC KEYBOARDS PULSATING BELOW IT ALL A LA A GUY NAMED FLORIAN—AND YOU CAN CHOOSE WHICH ONE YOU WANT. OH YEAH, I GOTTA MENTION THE HUMID BIKINI-VIBE THAT PERMEATES THE ENTIRE ALBUM. SO, IS THERE A BLUES ANGLE TO IT? YEAH, BUT YOU’VE GOT TO BURY YOURSELF IN IT OR DIG YOUR WAY IN. COME OUT STINKING IF YOU WANT. RECORDS DUE SOON ON WOODSIST, AND ON AMERICAN GRIZZLY.
