Peeesseye

“the most remarkable smorgasbord of back porch minimalism, sound poetry and urban decay of recent memory” – eric weddle, family vineyard
“ritual music balanced precariously between the sacred and the profane” – shaun brady, philadelphia city paper
“Situationist field recording rock” – arci blob, italy

Since 2002 The Peeesseye (Jaime Fennelly, Chris Forsyth & Fritz Welch) has been combining elements of warped rock architecture, freejazz horror, intergalactic glossolalia and stripped down abstract expressionism. Their concerts and recordings travel through fields of fine decay and up against walls of bonechilling catharsis.

Talibam!

Dear Colleagues: Talibam! is a Fun Band That Entertains.

Talibam! is one of the most potent and fascinating bands in today’s music scene. The five plus years of interplay between Mottel and Shea has created one of the most unique and exciting live shows and some of the most powerfully recorded documents of any era. At a time when most culture sticks to conservative niche opportunities, Talibam! is interested in expansion and exploration; they manage to part the sea by not sticking to genre, aesthetic predisposition or the usual norms of what being a ‘band’ is. More inclined to put on a show that any and all will like, and not be stymied by “avant” type-casting, they have won over both unsuspecting and in the “know” audiences worldwide. The energy of Kevin Shea’s full steam drumming is not to be missed, nor is the primal tone of Mottel’s synth run through a Marshall Half Stack.
