"Music doesn’t get much closer to the edge than this." –
Alternative Press
"...remarkably tight, with the ability to turn complicated and seemingly unrelated phrases on a dime." –
NPR
"Formerly a trio the band...has pared down to a duo...The new sound…has…a much greater emphasis on ragged, high-tempo garage prog brutality and spine-chilling soundscapes." –
DownBeat
"...they lurch swiftly from speed metal to thrash punk to a kind of heat-stroke minimalism. There’s noise and fire in their playing, but most of these tunes are also studded with signposts, demanding close attention and clear execution..." –
NY Times
North Carolina instrumental rock duo
Ahleuchatistas
belong to the beyond-category sector of such iconic, genre-flouting combos as John Zorn’s Naked City, Captain Beefheart’s Magic Band, Swans, Tortoise, and Sun City Girls. For a decade, they have consistently been one of the most exciting and stimulating live music experiences out there.
Ahleuchatistas combine wicked precision with intense abandon, droll humor with analytical construction, and a sly gregariousness with uncompromising vision. This pair interweaves elements of punk rock, jazz, classical music, speed metal, grindcore, progressive rock, noise, folk musics from Asia and North Africa, electronic music, and ambient aesthetics, along with volatile, unpredictable improvisation, flowing organically in a virtual world of their own. With a devoted international cult following, Ahleuchatistas is considered by many to be one of the most innovative and ever-developing instrumental groups of the past decade. Cerebral but never ponderous, Ahleuchatistas make immediate music that reaches for the mind, heart, and gut.
On their seventh album and third for Cuneiform, Ahleuchatistas’
Heads Full of Poison
is a sonic brew that reveals new flavors, new spices with every taste. Now a duo of charter member
Shane Perlowin
(guitar and bass) and
Ryan Oslance
(drums), Heads Full of Poison was developed over a two year period, road-tested and honed with numerous performances. The music was altered, edited, and embellished at nearly every gig with improvisational possibilities explored at length. The music combines highly detailed composition with a looseness that encourages a range of interpretation. The CD was live in the studio to capture the attack of their live performances with various guitar and bass tracks added to impart the richness and detail of a conceptualized studio album. By the time of the recording in January and February 2012, the music had been given ample time to ferment, so the performances captured are as close to perfection as possible, with technical hurdles surmounted, the sonic palette settled upon, each note and beat executed confidently and with nuance.
