Old Time Relijun - Catharsis in Crisis (2007)



For those of you who happen to be fans of noisy/artsy punk bands of the past like Pere Ubu and The Birthday Party, this Portland group might be right up your creepy, dimly lit alley.

The four-piece ensemble features a guitarist/bass clarinetist/vocalist, upright bass player, saxophonist, and drummer. They’ve been around since 1995 and have been putting albums out with a fairly regular frequency (this is their 8th full-length).

Streamable Track: "Indestructable Life!"

The spastic saxophone is very disturbing to me - listening to this makes me quite uneasy.

I can understand a lot of people not 'enjoying' this, but I love it. I wouldn't recommend the rest of the album for you. And stay away from the Birthday Party, haha.
