On his debut album, composer/film maker/comics artist Loren Boyer presents nine homemade chunks of low-fi drift and vaguely menacing anguish. Using amplified toys, tapes, bizarre atmospheres, some recognizable guitar and electronic drones, Boyer has created an introspective, claustrophobic album of melancholy song-like forms that veer from delicate hum to slowly accumulating tape-squeal malevolence.
Boyer‘s genre-resistant music is influenced by the hazy smog of The Dead C., the psychedelic meanderings of The Red Krayola, the absurd (and implacably sinister) humor of Sun City Girls, and improvisers such as nmperign and Derek Bailey. Des Parasites… is a concise and intensely personal statement from a unique and underdocumented artist. Includes introductory essay by Davey Willams.
Praise for Des Parasites Risquent de se Produire:
“Immediately impressive… Time, or maybe time pieces, could play a part in the construction of this series of (mostly) guitar compositions, nearly all of which have something curious ticking inside them. Elsewhere, subterranean drones and radio squeal add thier atmospheric weight to the proceedings until, finally, Boyer’s pecking guitar style emerges fleetingly before being gobbled up in a storm of sonic flak. Great stuff.” – The Wire
“The music is throbbing and ominous, subterranian and seditious. It is sleepwalking at noon with civil defense sirens going off all around you. In short, this music is disturbing.” – The Improvisor
“A perfect companion for everything but sleeping. Decidedly great.” – Ink 19
