Description

Stringy Rugs is Blast's third release. In addition to their usual instruments, they have scored parts for a number of guests on tuned percussion, brass & more. Combines a very unique & recognizable skewed rhythmic base [influenced by Capt. Beefheart] with angular & intricate horn & guitar charts ala Henry Cow and Doctor Nerve. ALL their releases are very fine, but this one is certainly their best yet. Must be heard to be believed; this is a great disc of intensely complicated, rehearsal-intensive RIO-style rock.
