Reissue of the 2007 LP (Hanson Records). Aaron Dilloway (ex-Wolf Eyes) & C. Spencer Yeh (Burning Star Core) recorded live to 4-track cassette in the summer of 2006 in Ann Arbor. Dilloway uses tape loops, tape delay, bowed tape and vocals and Yeh uses violin, voice and electronics. Heavy, psychedelic, noisy and expansive. This CD version includes a bonus track collage of the 3 tracks from the duo's out of print False Speech cassette. Digipak.
2009 CD reissue of (ex-Wolf Eyes) Aaron Dilloway's "Chain Shot" LP (2007). 'With only tape loops, metal, and horns (and sometimes, it seems, metal on horns) the two long pieces, 'Chain Shot' and 'Execution Dock' respectively, explore the ugly underbelly of noise before just scraping right through and aiming for the insides. In a genre that has quickly turned into a broad and often inaccurate description of a certain breed of every-man experimental music, Dilloway sticks to the old-fashioned definition of noise, doing battle with the materials in front of him as he continues the construction of his impressive body of work" (Ear Conditioned Nightmare). Contains a 28 minute bonus track. Digipak.
Portland act Grails are the cover band for the final Rock-A-Rolla issue of 2008. #17 also features interviews with Hair Police, Aaron Dilloway (ex-Wolf Eyes), Deerhoof, Bohren & Der Club Of Gore, Porn, MoHa!, Helms Alee, Mustard Gas & Roses (M.G.R.), Akimbo, Zach Hill, and a Q&A with Ten East. This month's Label Focus is on Southern Records. Also included is the usual vast selection of news, music, DVD and live reviews from the avant-rock, metal, noise and experimental scenes.

WOLF EYES With JOHN WIESE - 'Collection' CD (Hanson Records)
A collection of the Wolf Eyes with John Wiese 7" plus two EPs originally released in very limited editions on American Tapes in 2003-04. Digitally re-mastered by Wiese and finally available all together! "Combined into one ugly genetic mishap and flesh hacked covered package by Aaron Dilloway's Hanson label, this is a disintegrated release full of blossoming black sounds... The sheer breadth of textures and styles that they have used is nothing short of astounding... Scattered between exploring inner worlds and blowing-out corneas through riotous frequency changes, this is the place where digits are bent from their 0 and 1 roots into self-adapting cyborg sinews. Elements like stuck groove bell work, tape machine cloud cover and delicate looped horns seem like perfectly constructed movements, musical conclusions of thirty minutes of sweaty improv work".
