  1. Has anyone heard of this guy?

     

    Here's a short description:

     

    Arrington de Dionyso makes trans-utopian world music for a world that exists in fever dreams and hallucinations. De Dionyso’s most recent project, Malaikat dan Singa, is a trance-punk outfit featuring bass clarinet, guitars, multiple drummers and his trademark wild vocals (multi-spectral harmonic throatsinging combined with grunts, yelps, and barks) often sung in Indonesian.

    I heard one of their albums at a record store yesterday. I've been in awe ever since. For better or worse, it's one of the most interesting things I've heard in a long time, and I can't decide if I love it or hate it, if I want to buy the albums, or if they'll get old really fast.

     

    Thoughts and opinions?

  2. I think I picked up the new reissue of SOFAD yesterday from my local store. They had all 4 listed in the links in the first post, and the timing would lead me to believe it's them, since they come out on Tuesday... but I can't tell for sure. It's on Rhino, 180g, but doesn't have any indication it's a 2014 reissue. The label and sleeve both have the 2007 date. If someone else gets these, please post and let me know what yours say.
