ODD CLOUDS "THE CAVERNOUS END" LP on YPSILANTI RECORDS
"Odd Clouds is a roving collective of Detroit's most touched savages led by the restless vision of bandleaders Chris Pottinger (Cotton Museum/Tasty Soil Records) and Jamie Easter (formerly of the Pirhannas and Little Claw, now touring solo as a perfomance artist of the most disturbing caliber.) After about a year of existance, we're glad to unleash "The Cavernous End" as the first full-fledged album by this tribe, a face-melting record composed of three extended feral-psyche jams. The group is prone to impropmtu and somewhat confrontational public performance, lysergic deep-woods jamming and the like, and their bone-through-the-nose approach to music comes through strong on wax. Gutteral grunting, animalistic howls, blathering bursts of woodwinds and electronic noise bubble up to the surface of primal percussion and sounds of creatures dying and being born. Sounding like a feild recording of a late-60's cult farmhouse celebration or a private-press psyche record of the same era, "The Cavernous End" is moody, scary and beautiful, and hints at the depths of future weirdness the Clouds will send our way. Only 300 copies were made, and the packaging is a beautifully silk-screened line art collaboration between Easter and Pottinger of some fucked up creatures doing their thing in the woods.
