"Lovely, stoned/drifting improvs for digeridoo, pipe organ, sitar, sax, etc, led by John Frankovic, and played in a Milwaukee church by members of F/i, Plasticland, the Petals & the Violent Femmes. For reasons of perceived non-hipness, this is an album that slipped right through the cracks of most hipsters consciousness. I can only say that it is a gorgeous piece of late night listening and anyone who is into the Third Ear Band, Lola V. Stain, Annexus Quam, or other purveyors of hash-dappled chamber weirdom will find much to puff on here." - Father Yod
un episodio improvisado de humo cometido sobre la piedra fría de la tierra sagrada. un disco de Frank-o-Fest, marciano y espectacular, del que apenas existe información más allá del propio sello (la unión de father yod y ecstatic peace, propiedad de Thurston Moore) y con el que ya tienen el cielo ganado. free jazz, didjeridoo, improvisaciones, saxos y flautas de bambú, Finlandia, Hamid Drake, Peter Brötzmann, Pandit Pran Nath y sobre todo Rauhan Orkesteri. una vez que empieza 'One' (más de veinte minutos), la música avanza, se acelera, se desmadra...y desemboca sin que te dé tiempo a respirar en los ritmos tribales de 'Two' y el crescendo de 'Five'. tras las esquizofrenia, llega la calma, y el círculo se cierra con los cuatro minutos de didjeriddo de 'Six'.
