HEVOSET-S/T, TAPE, 2004, FINLAND







Predating their recently issued eponymous LP on Dekorder by four years, this blink-and-you-missed-it 50 copy cassette by Finnish freak folk/freak out operatives Jan Anderzen (Kemialliset Ystavat, Avarus, Tomutonntu etc) and Jani Hirvonen (Uton, Aan, Last Night On Earth) finds these two initiating a typically (if enjoyably) bedraggled pseudo ritualistic trawl through wheeze, twang, rustle and stumble on their way toward heavy lidded enlightenment.

NOTE: IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS TAPE CONTAINS THE SAME MATERIAL AS
IS ON THE NEWLY RELEASED HEVOSET LP ON DEKORDER, SO I'VE DELETED THE LINK AND AM REDIRECTING YOU Here WHERE YOU CAN PURCHASE A COPY OF THIS MOST EXCELLENT ALBUM.

    Sounds like ST Mikael from the description, who is awesome. Or is he Swedish? Thanks!

    anonymous-I haven't purchased the LP yet, so I wasn't aware. Are you sure this is the case? I read a whole bunch of reviews of their LP before posting it and now again just did so after your comment and see no reference to the LP being a reissue of this tape, but if someone can confirm that this is true, I will immediately pull the link for this.

    i know becouse i made the music for it! 8) i like your site anyway (lots of obscure good music here!!!) but maybe record label is not so happy about free download (are they ever?) the record is still new...and in shops.
