Cannot Destroy

from Big Enough to Know by Sleet

about

The army marched at dawn, sun scrabbling crab-like up the lightening sky. Long lean notes float, while off-beat stutters propel the beat. After 2m, the mood goes nightclub, not a neighborhood dive, but somewhere exotic and anteoriental. Scrapes flake metal paint spread by leaping guitar streaks on higher than high, I take a leap into the unknown at the 4m mark, climbing higher and higher out of all known range. 5m a new section picks up and establishes a detective story atmosphere of sex and crime and regret, Bill noodling into infinity, while Goddard and I swing into a thing. 7m the funk chord peeks out, a diminished crescendo follows, whipping up a bit of a frenzy, spunking out spastic like a true pathetic punk, Bill rescues the groove from irrelevance as it all gels into diminished patterns, and a mean pop beat ramps up out of all that, taken apart in a series of thoughtful drumrolls while still maintaining the riddim. At 11m everything clears out for some long bass notes. Sleet snaps it into a strict beat, we all follow diligently enough, with plenty of insane noodling away, and I thrown in a few simple rock beats, going prog as possible, and by 14m well-established. Lots of heavier metal garnished with Morris skills. Then an embarrassed halt.
