Inutili s/t 12”
Batshit knocked over a few pins last year with that Sunflare 12” and
they continue down that raggedy path of blistering worldsyke and
outsider kraut power. This time the Shit co-conspired with Goodbye Boozy
to bring us a one-sided two track freak fest that’ll keep the Japrock
or James Arthur heads in full effect. “Satori” is not a Flower Travelin’
Band cover, though the sounds ain’t too far removed. A galloping bass
line leads the way unwavering for five minutes plus as the guitars
thread and weave around it, slowly working their way into a full tilt
Itallio space war of cosmic carnage. A backwards tape kick in. The
guitar strings sound as though they’re being scrapped across metal
conduit. Then all hell cuts loose within a free-form vacuum of sound.
Pedal powered atmos-fear. It’s like that skewed bridge in Monoshock’s
“Soledad”, only this time caught in a loop. Black hole punk. The brief
little end piece (“Useless Asshole”) is like the post-coital smoke. A
gentle strummer to spoon away your spent dreams within. When the A-side
is up, you can flip the fucker and watch the needle skate like Dorothy
Hamill. Neat. Scummage count: 200 pressed. 100 copies for each label to
sell. All numbered n’ shit. Get with the program. (RSF)(Bat Shit Records // www.batshitrecords.bigcartel.com)
