: THE PERFECT RAT



Alone Records presents… another project with musicians from the desert?!! Not exactly. This time, along with Gary Arce (Yawning Man, Ten East), Mario Lalli (Fatso Jetson, Yawning Man) and Bill Stinson (Ten East) we are proud to introduce an american punk legend: Greg Ginn (Black Flag)!!!: Without this man we wouldn´t probably have no Sonic Youth, no Nirvana or no Kyuss (to name just a few). So, this is not another desert band project. This is the ultimate project of the american punk. This is the album that the "weak-mtv-pussy" punk scene needed. The fathers has come to teach a few things. And be sure they have a few things to say…

What would you find musically? Gary Arce's guitar work on the Perfect Rat is more like patterns with sort of an "angular" weird punk jazz, very unlike Yawning Man.... a side a Gary's guitar playing that is so unexpected like a Sort Of Quartet style, hard jazz patterns, distorted guitar, way different and cool... Mario Lalli joined the mix so the music had a really trippy mix with two guitars, definitely psychedelic and actually some was very moody, swirling psychedelic… Gary and Mario together are like two siamese twins musically! Greg Ginn (now on bass) develops a very rhythmic, steady player that finds that area between steady structure and jazz type freak outs....rock punk jazz bass! Bill Stinson´s drumming is more rock drumming with some jazz influences, and Mario Lalli with his very free form cool style....

Perfect Rat has a heavy rock rhythm section with this freaked out overdriven guitar and it was pretty out there overdrive energy by rock standards like when Hendrix played Star Spangled Banner jam at Woodstock, and his guitar is so alive with feedback if that works, picture that with a more pattern based approach versus Yawning Man's lonely, blissful, surf sounds. Like "Bithces Brew" Miles Davis meets Black Sabbath and King Crimson.

This release is a must have, not just for the ones who miss the old SST glory days, but for anyone who has been following the evolution of rock music in the last 25 years. A Great release for a little (but brave!) label. Punk style…

The ultimate jamming jazz punk experience....
