death to dead things
This Thursday at the Fun House, unknown legends of skronk and roll Trumans Water make a rare stateside appearance. The show coincides with the release of their 13th album O Zeta Zunis on Asthmatic Kitty who have plans to release the bands entire back catalog. Originating in San Diego in the early 90′s they’ve spent much time overseas in the past decade or so, but never stopped producing amazing and confounding music. Falling somewhere between Beefheart and Flipper Trumans Water still stand up next to most of the greats of 90′s noise rock but have remained elusive to many folks in the states. Trumans was a big favorite of John Peel who had them on for several Peel sessions over the years and once played their entire album uninterrupted over the BBC airwaves effectively melting the minds of the entire populace.
