Hypnotic, instrumental art rock monoliths by NYC composer Rhys Chatham. A shimmering wall of guitars -- or brass, in one instance -- grounded by propulsive, post-punk-y drumming. Yes, kinda like Glenn Branca. How the fuck did I just hear about this guy?
Track listing:
1. For Brass
2. Guitar Ring
3. The Out of Tune Guitar, No. 2
4. Cadenza
New York's alright if you like saxophones
