2004 album from bassist Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle, John Zorn, Fantomas) with percussionist Ches Smith (Theory Of Ruin), & guitarist Mary Halvorson. "People ask me what kind of music it is & I never know what to say. There is counterpoint; there are power chords & atonal melodies. Sometimes it swings; sometimes it tries hard not to swing. There are complicated written passages & sections of free improvisation. It"s not fusion but it does combine disparate styles & yet I like to think of forms developing organically as opposed to a cut-and-paste technique. Whether I"m listening to Throbbing Gristle or Britney Spears I absorb what comes my way. It"s all music to me, & why shouldn"t it be? I consider myself rootless because I accept all. I have no ties & nowhere to go. & the music I write is a result of that." - Trevor Dunn.
