pat dry I heard a rumor that “Slice of Life” was originally titled “The R*pe of an Angel” by K.K. Null, but Jim O’Rourke objected and they instead settled on naming it after a haunting exhibit at a Chicago museum consisting of slabs of actual human cadavers encased in plexiglass. Favorite track: Dismebody.

about

A whale of a record uniting the BRISE-GLACE ensemble with ZENI GEVA's K.K. Null! Contra punctual instro-interplay, puzzling lyrics, stuttering time signatures, progressive rock, avant-experimentalism, guest vocals by MELT-BANANA's Yasuko O., ambient-metal, Albini's gear, it's all here! Guaranteed to flip your Boogie Switch!

FUN FACT(S):
Yona-Kit means "Jonah Whale!

The band only first practiced together days before recording, due to the long, long distances between band members! The band wrote the songs by trading cassette tapes through the mail.

The cover art features stop motion animation puppets of Serious Brown and Hot Satan that were used in the as yet unreleased spaghetti western, "The Stinking".
