"Henry Cow always wanted to push itself, so sometimes we would write music that we couldn't actually play – I found that very encouraging." - Lindsay Cooper, 1998
"I have nothing to do with Endless River. Phew! This is not rocket science people, get a grip." - Roger Waters, 2014
"I'm a collector. And I've always just seemed to collect personalities." - David Bowie, 1973
Sounds good to me! I'm looking forward to seeing them live.

Wow. Govan's got some high-octane talent on the rhythm section -- are he and Satch swapping them?
Now that's what I want to see... a Satch/Govan guitar duel!
Seriously, though, sounds nice... good fusiony stuff. But I'd still love to see a GPS album!
Big love for The Aristocrats in every way.
Sweet, seeing them on 7/30

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

Wow. That youtube medley clip is great. Govan was so underutilized by Asia, that it is almost painful to contemplate.
In the slew of great releases of the past 2 years, the Aristocrats' debut fell through the cracks for me. Must check it out.
COOL! The samples already sound better than the debut as far as production/recording goes. Not that I didn't dig the debut, but for me, it was a little too bone dry (no reverb or delay on anything) and could've benefitted from a few guitar overdubs. Maybe they felt the same way, because I'm hearing some ambience and some overdubs on these samples.
I'm afraid it wouldn't be pretty. Guthrie can ape Satch pretty perfectly (check out the below video at the 3:09 minute mark)... and about 20 other guitar players. Granted, those guys came up with their styles while Guthrie just drew from all of them, but if we're talking "duel," he's got a bigger trick bag and at least as much chops as any of them. I'm not really an advocate of music as competition, but if you want to make it into a sport, my money's on GG.
BTW, I'll be seeing The Aristocrats for the second time in Chicago on August 14th at Reggie's.
I'll be seeing them in Madison in August (with the "ghost" a/k/a my son Peter). Don't know yet if the venue (which usually features jazz & folk artists) has any idea what they're in for aurally with these 3 guys!

Absolutely cannot wait to see them here in Houston in August - joy!

My GOD. This sounds delicious.
And the cover picture is very fun one, might I add...

Northern Kentucky in August!
Their dvd from the last album, "Boing...We'll do it live" is absolutely brilliant. I liked the first release ok, but those songs just
blew up in the live format. One of the most entertaining sets I've seen.

Can't wait to see these guys (again) live. And the new music is most excellent.
The guy is a virtuoso no doubt, but honestly this is musical masturbation to my ears. It sounds very cliched and has a "been there...done that" presentation. I love Beller and Minnemann, but aside from these guys certainly enjoying themselves, they could be doing something more creative. No, I'm not a hater or even a troll, its just my opinion.
