Title:  Sylissain Oot (QBICO 28) Artist:  Rauhan Orkesteri, Lauhkeat Lampaat - Various Artists Label:  Qbico Records Format:  LP Price:  € 19.00   Mp3 samples: none

Title Description:
"Rauhan Orkesteri's recent single on the Finnish POK label may be the greatest seven inches of gut-wrenching avant jazz intensity since Borbetomagus's brain-erasig Coelacanth back in 1993. This album - their second vinyl LP to date - continues in the loose, high-energy vein of the single with a clutch of instantly composed high-register hymnals and frayed bottom end blues. The first track here matches the legendary Center of the World group led by Frank Wright in terms of visceral tone-bending assault, with detonating Sunny Murray-style percussion working folk tattoos into muddy whorls of sophisticated grunt. Also scattered throughout the LP are duo tracks by Rauhan offshot Lauhkeat Lampaat that map a goofier arc than the mothership by combining hand percussion and assorted small instruments in miniature freakouts that sound somewhere between The Mothers of Invention, Han Bennink's solo work and The Godz. Comes on sick pink vinyl too." David Keenan
