V/a / Less Self Is More Self

Ecstatic Peace

Tarantula Hill, the preeminent East Coast USA clubhouse for traveling noise and other obscurant pleasure musics of the early 21st century, was ravaged by fire in March 2006. T Hill was also the abode of Nautical Almanac, a remarkable dada love-sound noise  trio consisting of  Carly Ptak, Twig Harper and Max Eisenberg. Located in Baltimore, Maryland these fine folks feted the likes of all that is amazing in the underground community of post-free zone music/art/performance.  As an irreplaceable venue/hangout it will be completely missed and mytholigized. Lots of cool benefit gigs have happened in honor to Tarantula Hill since the blaze. Ecstatic Peace decided to help by throwing together a double CD compilation of artists who had intimate association with the joint. An amazing array of participation here, all kinds of Wolf Eyes breakdowns: Aaron Dilloway, Nate Young, The Graveyards (w/ John Olson), The Haunting (w/ Mike Connelly), To Live And Shave In L.A., Leslie Keffer, Jessica Rylan, Mark Morgan (of Sightings), Chris Corsano and tons more. Musically the CDs flow with an astounding dynamic of  sound idea exhibiting a scene in glorious rapture to the outer grasp.
