Jesus Lizard and Scratch Acid front man David Yow has released an album of solo material called "Tonight You Look Like a Spider," and it doesn't sound anything like i would have expected. Rather than a blast of sweaty, spitting, noisy and experimental punk, this mostly instrumental affair (15 years in the making) stretches its greasy fingers into horror film textures, claustrophobic atmospheres, and experimental and industrial soundscapes. It's difficult at times, oddly amusing at others, and downright foreboding at others. Listen to "Thee Itch" below and get the record from
Joyful Noise.
Thank you so much for posting this! I'd read something about it somewhere a few weeks ago and then promptly forgot all about it. Gonna get it today. Tempted to listen to the track you've posted, but kinda want to wait until I have the entire record.
