An Albatross performs "The Revolutionary Politics of Dance"

Revolutionary psych-grind spiritualists An Albatross visit Soundlab on Sunday (Sept. 3) in support of their debut full-length, Blessphemy (of the Peace-Beast Feastgiver and the Bear-Warp Kumite), out on Ace Fu Records. This small army of freaked-out aggregates have a real mission statement, and whether or not it makes any sense is pretty much beside the point: "Brothers and Sisters! Aural Emancipation by the sacred sonic offerings of An Albatross is on its way! Their mission is to attune you to the Kinetic-Life and yield an experience gratifying to the soul and body alike: A communal gathering of bodies in motion devoid of inhibiting hyper-individualized frame of thought!" All those exclaimation points also represent the enthusiasm behind the music, which is a whirlwind, a circus, a war-zone, a revelation. An Albatross plays with Bare Flames, at 8pm.
