* Brother JT & Vibrolux: Comet (29 mb)
From Music For The Other Head : Siltbreeze Records : SB41

While writing the previous post on Brother JT, I re-realized just how much I love this song, Comet. This is an amazing workout of the subconcious mind. It’s kind of difficult to describe their sound, but think free form psychedelic guitar freakouts combined with stream-of-consciousness lyrical ramblings/vocalizations and you’re getting pretty close.

I remember playing this song to start off my radio dj set one time. The studio was totally dark except for the various lights from the equipment and the studio was slightly too warm for comfort. I was just sitting there getting into the song and about 15 minutes into it, the phone lights up. I’m thinking it’s someone calling to complain about the song. But when I pick up, it’s this low, creepy, growly voice intoning “the comets will come, the comets will come, the comets will come”. I about peed my pants and quickly hung up the phone. Shortly after that, I get another call. But this time it’s my sculpture professor on the phone, laughing and asking if he scared me. What an ass!

At any rate. I was kind of hesitant to post this one. Kind of because it’s such a large file, but mostly because I’m not too sure that there’s much of an audience for this type of music. But then I thought, the point of this blog is to introduce people to new music, so why the hell shouldn’t I post this song? So, hope you enjoy.
