DJ ESP - The EarthWorm Sings

There are many facets to Woody Mc Bride's career, but back when it counted, if it was the hard stuff you fancied, Woody wasn't just the king of US psychotic acid, but indeed potentially THE king of the hard acid sound next to a handful of our favourite German purveyors of the industrial edge of the little TB's talents.

The argument about that rages on and will continue to do so, but when you hear this record, all of that fades to nothing and the SOUND engulfs you and does things to your mind, right at the lizard brain core where the seat of our emotions as homo sapien's resides, that changes how you perceive music as a whole.

You cannot help but be changed by this record if you were one of us who heard this blasting out of a multi-K sound system taking prisoners of those who fell under it's spell. A spectrum analysis of the harmonic content of this record is a sight to behold: the magic is right there encoded into those narrow little grooves.

Only 'Hidden' on Labworks he released as 4D is better, but played one after the other, all that noise suddenly starts making sense...



A comment on this vinyl: side A of this release is quieter than side B, however it is the same with the black vinyl "repress", and overall the quality of the softer marbled vinyl suits the noisy elements of this recording better than the black. If you can get one, the brown one is the one you want, if you can't - get what you can find.

Good luck on your hunt.
