Coming Up On.....Saturday 12th April

Drums + Guitar + Noise




Capsule present:

'Chris Corsano - a kinetic DIY drummer [one of the world's most exciting -
currently BJORKS' drummer] - uses this project to inject some punk tabla-type
rolls into being while
Mike Flower - an incendiary guitar player - also plays
the "shaahi baaja" or "japan banjo" from India in an amazing solo style and
transcendent manner. As a powerful and loud guitar/drum duo, Lightning Bolt
comparisons come cheap, but the Flower-Corsano Duo are something else; more like
a punk-jazz-trash Konono No1, they have that special power to elevate through
noise, rhythm and special harmonies. This is an experience the audience wants to
have, an exhilarating sight/sound that shudders the body and cleanses the
mind.Michael Flower is best known as a member of Leed's Vibracathedral
Orchestra, a lynchpin of the improvising rock/noise/drone world. He has also
played with legendary artists such as Tony Conrad and Jandek as well as in
projects such as the trio with Matthew Bower + C. Spencer Yeh.Vibracathedral's
close relationship with Sunburned Hand Of The Man has meant MF has toured with
them across the USA and Europe, both as a member and solo.'
