***NOW AVAILABLE ON CD!!! Intergenerational discomfort rock performed together by two free-sound conglomerates—the sprawling Portland, Oregon-based LAFMS progenitors SMEGMA, and the more compact WOLF EYES. With cover art depicting crop circles, alien grave rubbings and cryptographs, and group portrait inside resembling a family reunion snapshot you might find at a thrift store, The Beast merges RICHARD MELTZER's nasal meander, reptilian pulsations, exploratory tweakadelica, outsider improv, toys, devices, and electronic noises. Proof that old weird America is far from obsolete and more than capable of frying the fiendly skies.
