AVAILABLE AGAIN!!! "This Cleveland combo, led by MATTEW WASCOVICH, has sounded a little random to my ears previously. But this effort, No Endowments, featuring Clevelanders DAVE CLINTON (TERMINAL LOVERS, DOWNSIDE SPECIAL), TEDD FLYNN (THEODORE VRIL), ANDREW KLIMEK (X-BLANK-X, JOHNNY & THE DICKS, DEATH ON A STICK, UGLY BEAUTY), SCOTT PICKERING (PUFFTUBE, PRISONSHAKE, MY DAD IS DEAD, SPIKE IN VEIN, HAPPY FLOWERS), NATE SCHEIBLE (SELF DESTRUCT BUTTON), DAN WENNINGER (OBLIQUE ORCHESTRA), and WEASEL WALTER (FLYING LUTTENBACHERS, XBXRX, LAKE OF DRACULA) is freeform skronk, but other parts are great rolling-CLE-word-spews in the Laughner/Kryss tradition, with instrumental moves jacked from Death of Samantha and Rocket From The Tombs, then updated like crazy. Crazy."—Byron Coley. Our prom date at Weirdo Records describes their sound as "dispossession and discontent that could be from 1972 or now.... [V]isions of 8mm movies flickering aimlessly over the eternally dilapidated streets of Cleveland." The album was mastered by Weasel Walter. The cover art is by DEVANDRA BANHART.
