Anthony Pasquarosa is one of era's most mutable performers. His first solo LP, recorded under the soubriquet Crystalline Roses, is an ingenious post-volk blend of acoustic feverings. But he has been equally active as a member of the hardcore trio Aerosols, the post-form fuck-duo SQRM, and Josh Burkett's trad-folk unit, Frozen Corn. A regular customer at the Feeding Tube record store, Tony walked in with this demo one day back in 2013, and they were immediately smitten. His sonic vision included weird science fiction and a thug brevity worthy of Mick Farren's Deviants or Michael Moorcock's Deep Fix. The music was brutal space metal and the lyrics were the same. It had been a long time since Feeding Tube had heard their like, and they immediately signed them up for an LP. This issue -- with all its glitches -- is what they were struck with that day. In the meantime, Tony has assembled an actual World Domination band, with Andy Crespo on bass, Andrew McCarthy on drums, Jeremy Pisani on guitar, Todd Schmeling on chaos and Pasquarosa on guitar/vocals. They have blown down faithful fans at several shows already, including a spot opening for Hawkwind's Nik Turner, and one can only hope their blast expands from here. Edition of 210. Includes a download code.
