"Our last
Big Blood
release was the idiosyncratic
Ant Farm
,
Colleen
and
Caleb
's collaboration with the late composer
Elliott Schwartz
, which presented music designed for a museum installation. With
Operate Spaceship Earth Properly
, Big Blood return to the vast universe of strangeness they explore inside their own skin. Now fully incorporating the vocals and guitar of their daughter
Quinnisa
(previously a 'secret weapon' unveiled mostly at live shows, as the
Dictators
once did with
Handsome Dick Manitoba
), Big Blood sound nutsier and wilder than ever.
Spaceship Earth
is a massively psychedelic investigation of science fiction, science fact and the mythic spot where they reconcile. Specifically referring to the work of writers such as
Octavia Butler
,
Ursula K. Le Guin
and
Buckminster Fuller
, the music mixes the thunder of riff-thuggery with vocals beamed in from planet
Comus
and beat-slaps equally indebted to the Purple Revolutionary and the Neue Deutsche Welle. The combination is head-spinning and gloriously original but will be immediately identifiable as Big Blood by anyone who knows the band's music. I mean, it's so freaking strange and so freaking Maine, who else could it be?" --
