Anyone listen to these guys yet? Joe Lally and Brendan Canty from Fugazi, instrumental stuff. Guitarist is Anthony Pirog.

I'm digging it so far--it's like those extended Fugazi jams were turned into full numbers.

i should give it a few more spins, but i haven't been able to get into it. i like everyone involved, but this stuff just seems "wanky" for lack of a better word.
(and i love prog & fusion!)

I think I know what you mean--like the guitarist is just sort soloing for the sake of soloing?? I think it works on Mythomania but Serpent Tongue is ridiculous.

My favorites are "Once Upon a Time" "The Weaver" (slower ones)

They're doing a couple of shows down here next month. Could be interesting.

I'd rather just listen to Ataxia
