twisted village (usa) #tw 1051 lp

tono-bungay “kluge” long playing record

  • ode to pujol (12:00)

  • jack fell down (11:11)
twisted village press release...
new 24-minute 12" from one of america's longest-running free rock outfits. new york city's tono bungay features ace string picker bob bannister, who has lent his guitar talents to projects as diverse as cat power and glenn branca's recent 100-guitar orchestra as well as releasing two solo lp's on twisted village. one could nary guess he was weaned on finnish prog in finland, no less!

drummer tony cenicola is content to lay down a solid backbeat for a few seconds before erupting into pure freedom, then throwing drumsticks at the kit (and audience), then whipping his drums with chains and whatever else is handy. dada master robert dennis manipulates his masterfully planned auto-destruct labyrinth of bass, tape machines, and electronics, which is so beautifully planned by it's creator that it often self-destructs long before robert pushes that big red button.

kluge is sonically closer to the two-track squall of their 1993 debut lp rough music than the careful ambiance of wunderkammer with their focus sharpened by nearly a decade of dedicated work on their unique approach to sound.

twisted village (usa) #tw 1043 cd

tono-bungay “wunderkammer” compact disc

  • (no tracklisting)
twisted village press release...
tono bungay, the name appropriated from a title of an h.g. wells novel, have been being densely realized in new york city for five years now. their first lp was released by twisted village in 1993 setting off a reverberation that continues to effect many of the newer rock bands leaning towards more improvisation. during the past year, the band has been in full swing, touring the northeast and releasing two ten inchers, one a split with tower recordings.

tono bungay is composed of bob bannister on guitar and robert dennis on guitar and electronics and kept in constant forward motion by drummer tony cenicola. wunderkammer opens with their first ever 'song' (with vocals even!), and then careens through 7 purely improvised pieces of brooding psychedelic ecstasy. there's no passage unfilled here; bannister's guitar navigates the often hazardous free rock river with a confidence of a captain that's got something to say. the cd, (no vinyl this time), and booklet are accompanied by tony's lovely, surreal photographs, each signifying a song title.
