*This hotly anticipated debut album from Detroit, Michigan's The Piranhas** delivers on the promise of the band's two seven-inch singles and twelve-inch single released on the Tom Perkins and Rock n' Roll Blitzkrieg labels. These early releases have garnered rave reviews and helped land them on the cover of Maximum Rock'n'Roll. Their chaotic live shows have earned them a reputation as one of the few truly primal and dangerous bands around. Their music is a violent head-on collision between art-skronk abstraction and raw punk savagery. Like a mutant cross between Hearpen-era Pere Ubu and Damaged-era Black Flag, with a dose of mid-'70s Cleveland punk poured over the top for good measure. Yet they still sound like nothing else you've heard before. The Piranhas fucking destroy. The Piranhas may be the best band of this era. Art damage punk that is so brutal and primordial that it's unbelievable. They make me want to pull my intestines out and chop on them! They make me want to drill through my own hand! I AM NOT FUCKING KIDDING!!! I totally lose my shit over these guys. If you haven't heard any of their shit you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to modern punk. Fuck!!! Fuck!!! Shit!!! DESTROY YOURSELF!!!

Artist:	PIRANHAS	Title:	Piscis Clangor
Format:	12"	Catalog Number:	ITR114
Price:	$8.25	Label:	In The Red
Release Date:	7/26/04
*Detroit's Piranhas** have carved quite a reputation for themselves in their short existence. Their live shows have been described as terrifying, confrontational, dangerous, offensive, intrusive and confusing amongst other things (all of it quite accurate). With live shows legendary for their violence and mayhem it has somehow been overlooked that the band is also responsible for some of the most original music going today. Punk? Prog? No Wave? It's all of these and none of them. Screaming vocals, frantic tempos, fractured song structures, left-field time changes, whirling carnival organ all executed with a demented sheen of pure art damage that would make The Residents proud. The Piranhas vinyl-only EP is presented with loads of pretension and no apologies o eight songs in exactly 23 minutes.
