Rare long long gone 2nd press 1973 HEAVY MONSTER!
THUNDERPUSSY
Documents Of Captivity
...UK - Breeder 002
REALLY SCARCE, not seen in many years...this is a 25+ years ago super limited 2ndpress of the 37+ years ago super rarity private pressing heavyrock monster aptly named THUNDERPUSSY....
This is the work of a 1973 hard rock/progressive trio from Quincy in South Illinois. Nice (mostly) hard-rockin' progressive with killer moves and sound featuring lotsa harmonies (guitar leads and vocals, both) that should appeal to fans of Wishbone Ash and other dual guitar jam bands of the early 70's heavy rock scene, but way above your average heavy, these cats raise the bar when talking quality sound and moves... Production is excellent, surprisingly enough for a self-pressed recording of this vintage, complex power trio... The song titles are utterly baffling, with each of the six tracks or "documents" ("Document Of Enigma", "Document Of Latent Summation", etc.) endowed with TWO titles; one for the "song" part of the song ("Scream Inside" and "Observation Of Us" being a couple); and, just like on the Black Sabbath and King Crimson LPs these guys no doubt hoarded, a seperate title for the "Instrumentation" (such as "The Battle", "The Pursuit" and - no shit - "The Then" !) A total of 18 titles for 6 songs. Madness - and don't even ask about the lyrics.The album is not at all contrived and is quite experimental at times, and is a concept album (apparently about a poem). Their titles are off-kilter, having seemingly three parts to every song, most of which travel beyond the five-minute mark, progressive rock heaven. A beautifully performed suite of songs with deep, poetic musings on the nature of good vs. evil, class inequalities and other subjects, this mixes fragile guitar interludes with classic guitar heaviness, traditional prog-rock time craziness and general higher elevation musical themes. Idiotic, and enthusiastically performed.
