Thurston Moore - Klangfarbenmelodie​.​. And The Colorist Strikes Primitiv

As inaccessible to mainstream audiences a lot of Sonic Youth's output was, there is some of their work that is just pure noise, and I mean that in the best possible way. Way back in 1995, Thurston Moore released Klangfarbenmelodie​.​. And The Colorist Strikes Primitiv only in New Zealand. It was a free noise set with free jazz drummer Tom Surgal. You'll know if you want to hear this based on that description alone, and if you do, you're in luck. Klangfarbenmelodie​.​. And The Colorist Strikes Primitiv  is being released for the first time in the States, and on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl. Thurston Moore performing with a free jazz drummer in 1995 won't be for everyone, but for those of us excited by this idea, this release is a dream come true.

You can listen to "Klangfarbenmelodie​.​. And The Colorist Strikes Primitiv (Part 2)" below. Klangfarbenmelodie​.​. And The Colorist Strikes Primitiv will be released on November 2 on Glass Modern Records. You can pre-order your copy via Bandcamp. Thurston Moore will be heading out on a noise tour soon.
