DeStijl

Intergenerational discomfort rock performed together by two free-sound conglomerates-the sprawling Portland, Oregon-based LAFMS progenitors SMEGMA, and the more compact WOLF EYES. With cover art depicting crop circles, alien grave rubbings and cryptographs, and group portrait inside resembling a family reunion snapshot you might find at a thrift store, The Beast merges RICHARD MELTZER's nasal meander, reptilian pulsations, exploratory tweakadelica, outsider improv, toys, devices, and electronic noises.
