Palo Verde | Cinder Cone (split) [GRD|002]









Colors





40 minutes of music by two awesome bands on one tape for $8

One side is the female duo Palo Verde from (Portland OR) and they're just making it up as it goes along... literally. The girls improvise heavy, psychedelic jams that come to life without any preconceived structure or format, building a wall of thundering drums and sludgy guitars, only to bring it crashing down in waves of noise and long-suffering cymbals

The other side is another two-piece minimalist rock outfit Cinder Cone from (Los Angeles, CA), emit a thunderous sound of octopus drumming and innovative fretwork that weave together to place the listener on a propulsive freeway one minute only to drop them off in a placid field, capping off the journey with an earthquake of drum rolls and precisely controlled feedback.

Limited: 225 total. All silk screened, hand cut, sewed and stitched printed art attachment.
Collage art by: Joe McKay, album design and layout by: Yldarb

all the tapes come with a FREE digital download card that is nicely placed in the cassette packaging, so don't worry about any messy transfers, or if you don't have a cassette player you'll still be able to listen to it.
