More Info:
OOIOO and Lightning Bolt are both bands whose music is wholly unique and whose creators' influencewould be impossible to overstate. 2 Epic OOIOO SONGS and 5 Blistering Lightning Bolt Songs ! YoshimiO, OOIOO's founder and bandleader, has been a guidingforce in uncompromising art across the continuum of rock and improvised music for four decades, fromher work in UFO or Die to The Boredoms to SAICOBAB and beyond. OOIOO serves as a core outletfor melding freeform experimentalism with hypnotic rock pulses, defying boundaries with her acrobaticvoice, electronics, trumpet and gamelan. Lightning Bolt's Brian Chippendale and Brian Gibson haveremained unparalleled in their ability to transmute frenetic whirls of percussion, gargantuan fuzz anddizzying melody into monolithic vistas. THE HORIZON SPIRALS / THE HORIZON VIRAL is a split thatcaptures the parallels in ethos between these two ensembles, their sense of gleeful abandon and freighttrain momentum, in inspiring detail.THE HORIZON SPIRALS, composed of OOIOO's gamelan-infused sagas "THE HORIZON" and "GamelBE SURE TO SPIRAL" demonstrates the boundless scope of OOIOO's music. YoshimiO explains a corecontrast between these pieces and 2014's Gamel lays in the physical materials used: "Back then in Bali,bronze-keyed gamelan were mainstream, and GAMEL uses bronze. THE HORIZON SPIRALS' gamelanis iron. Black-painted iron. This time, incorporating Koheysai's iron sound (iron gamelan) allowed us tosee OOIOO's songs spiraling upward with greater lightness.Lightning Bolt's THE HORIZON VIRAL evokes the limitlessness of their improvisations and distillsthrough more sophisticated home recording techniques. THE HORIZON VIRAL reignites the flame oftheir storied home recordings, capturing the duo in full freeform, bolstered from bassist Brian Gibson'sexperiences composing and recording soundtracks for video games he co-designed, Thrasher andThumper.
