Al Karpenter: Greatest Heads
LP with 8pg zine, limited to 300.
A co release between Night School nd comrades Hegoadisks
Radical Basque group combine frayed free rock, sound design and distorted afro-beat influences to create a re-imagining of sonic protest. Ecstasy as a form of freedom?
If Theodore Adorno wrote “To Write Poetry after Auschwitz is Barbaric” in 1949, Al Karpenter attempts to answer the difficult question today; what kind of music can be done in the face of a genocide? Álvaro Matilla, Marta Sainz, Enrique Zaccagnini & Mattin’s response to the planet’s slipping into a vortex of hate is to create a music ecstatic, a music of protest bursting with multiple musical languages and glossaries, full of overlapping histories and thrilling tensions.
We are all karpenters.
