That sold it for me. Seeing them live sealed the deal. Back to the classic Man is the Bastard sound with a classic Man is the Bastard lineup. So gnarly!!!
Wood's description:
A paramount product of composition, sonic-rendering and package, this second volume of BASS/PERCUSSION/ELECTRONICS structured work realizes the full, true power of “THE SKULL” as a critical force in contemporary musical expression. Here “spun-steel-girder” virtuoso ERIC WOOD and Trogotronic “electronic-ace” W T NELSON are joined by original MAN IS THE BASTARD master-drummer JOEL CONNELL for what could become the most interesting T.B.N combination to date following the departure of DANNY WALKER (INTRONAUT/PHOBIA/MURDER CONSTRUCT) and his unmatched performance in the previous line-up.
“A CULTURE OF MONSTERS” revives the depiction of “odyssey” via music and challenges the imagination in unprecedented manner. Arrangements for “A.C.O.M.” span a wide range of unrelenting, progressive and atmospheric expression without compromising potency or dynamic color.
True to the “skull-tradition” of collaboration T.B.N. enlisted the efforts of many “trusted-skulls” to complete this endeavor, most noteworthy project guests: NATHAN MARTIN (CREATION IS CRUCIFIXTION) who performs the spoken-word title manifesto & MIKE REYNOLDS (LACK OF INTEREST) who deployed his own particular brand of mighty vocal havoc on a key track. Producer MICHAEL ROZON (“ROGUE ASTRONAUT” / “THE RED LIST”) “serves the skull” anew, commanding his lethal battery of audio artillery to deliver this intricate and devastating assembly.
