Adjective City

Completely unlike anything else. Highly rhythmic and ranging about the low end of the frequency spectrum, Drumhead combines an elaborate array of percussion and sound sources, and mixes them with slight amounts of bass and synthesizer for a deep droning experience. Drumhead forsakes pyrotechnic displays of technique in favor of mid-tempo hypnotic rhythms, using a lot of booming and resonating percussion to achieve a unique style for themselves. Features legendary bassist Tony Maimone, noted for work with Swans, Pere Ubu, and They Might Be Giants. Perishable Ltd., P.O. Box 57-8804, Chicago, IL 60657-8804
