On their twelfth live recording, the electrifying power trio continues to expand the vocabulary of their improvised sonic sorcery. One LP of mysterious duo invocations, followed by two LPs of primordial free rock. Through concentrated force and harnessed chaos, the trio patiently pushes primordial riffs to their noisiest, most visceral limits, striving to become the sound itself.

While this live broadcast was originally selected & sequenced spontaneously, it retrospectively appeared to move through some interesting movements. The introductory set of ambient pop & minimalist folk is followed by a long stretch of Japanese Psychedelia from four different decades. During the second hour we venture through jazz fission, abstract rap, and microtonal psych before closing the show with a trio of ethereal folk meditations.

The free-form psychedelia and tribal “group therapy” of Sunburned Hand of the Man are in great hands with producer Kieran Hebden (Four Tet)—his dubs and cuts transform their usually lo-fi, meandering jams into something much more immediate, without losing any of their exploratory and spontaneous energy. Recommended for fans of polyrhythmic Afro-inspired percussion, dubbed out production, communal sound rituals, and dense psychedelia.
