Destroy All Nels Cline

In which the lanky longtime axe hero of Los Angeles' creative music scene seeks to explore the possibilities of many stringed instruments and their timbres...and to create a climate of catharsis. Oh yeah, and get his noise improv rocks off in the guitar army company of close compadres Woodward Lee Aplanalp, Carla Bozulich, and G.E. Stinson. So the relevant consumer warning is for anyone (like maybe Bozulich fans expecting some traces of the Geraldine Fibbers) who find torrential maelstroms of guitar noise anathema to steer clear -- it's dense pack time here with four guitars, rhythm section, and occasional guests Zeena Parkins and Wayne Peet.
