Silver Mt. Zion - 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons

Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band's
latest album just leaked, and .. it's a grower. HOWEVER, the
last tune "Blindblindblind" is instantly one of the best
songs I've ever heard. The rest is quite good as well,
although I'm not sure about "Black Waters Blowed" just yet.
It's very rough and odd. They've gotten more aggressive and
noisy, but the main 'vein' of their sound is still intact.
So, right now it's a prospect for an excellent album, I just
need a bit more time with it. Same as with their previous
stuff, I guess. Blindblindblind though. Fuck me, that tune
is enormous from the get-go. Both figuratively and
literally.

AGREED. Good call on all accounts. Very nice album. Not
sure the aggressiveness will be here to stay, perhaps its
more of a conceptual gesture. I'm not sure, but I think it
tends to work ok enough.

Does Efrim Menuck still sings? If so I'll probably hate it.
I'd hate it either way but you know, I'd hate it more
intensely.

Yes Effrim sings, it works well when it needs to.

As gl0tch said, he sings. A lot, actually! It's funny, he
sounds a bit like Emo Phillips. I like it.
