Wiseblood

created by PikeWake

(thing) by PikeWake (1.1 mon) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Mon May 22 2000 at 13:23:08

Collaboration between Jim "Foetus" Thirlwell and Roli Mosimann. This unfortunatelly short-lived band released two EPs (Motorslug and Pedal to the Metal) and an album, Dirtdish with accompanying 12" single Stumbo.

The music of Wiseblood is Foetus at his best, honed to a sharp edge by Mosimann's unparrallelled feeling for production and soundscaping, even on an all-out-assault on the eardrums such as this.

The guitar riff on "Stumbo" (played by Norman Westberg of Swans, I think), is a classic and is sampled and used frequently in other songs, trailers etc.
