Necks, The – Silverwater CD Bell Witch It's a dozen dirty songs

It's a dozen dirty songs that are immediately memorable

“Stephen and François deal in those moments and instants that happen after the violence

Toshiji Mikawa and Fumio Kosakai seem capable of something profound together that has yet to have heard

but one could try to imagine a mix of The Spits

Heiroglossia avoids sacrificing the primacy of the riff for reverb-drenched formlessness or song writing in favour of dissonance for its own sake

Necks, The – Silverwater CD Bell Witch It's a dozen dirty songsAbstract future jazz by the now legendary Australian experimental jazz trio formed in 1987 by Chris Abrahams on piano and Hammond organ, Tony Buck on drums, percussion and electric guitar, and Lloyd Swanton on bass guitar and double bass. 2009 album, Silverwater, sees the Necks at their most still and reflective. Minimal, free and everflowing hypnotic improvised 'jazz' (or not).
