Tashi Dorji & Tyler Damon - Leave No Trace: Live In St. Louis - New Vinyl 2018 Family Vineyard (Companion LP to Both Will Escape) Limited to 500, Includes Download - Jazz / Experimental / Noise

Street Date: 2/2/18

As live albums go, Tashi Dorji and Tyler Damon nail it down. No matter the crowd -- head thrashers, Instagram zombies, shaken jazzniks -- the shadow lines of feedback and bombastic percussive bombs are always at peak intensity. Through telepathic engagement the Bhutanese-born guitarist Dorji and Midwestern drummer Damon act with one-mind destruction as Leave No Trace: Live In St. Louis perfectly captures. It's a pure sound for these disruptive, politically tumultuous times. Or Marc Master's describes it as, a power lurching at you "in ways that feel dangerously uncontrolled, like someone playing with a plugged-in toaster over a filled-up bathtub." Leave No Trace -- a companion release to their hyper-acclaimed debut Both Will Escape -- was recorded at Gaslight in St. Louis. The 500-edition LP features jacket designed by the hand/razor of Jeremy Kannapell; comes with a download coupon.
