that second dissonant chord construction is tense or intense or extensively extreme// this is so neat of a composition it could go on and on IMO :) well done..

This starts at essentially the same improvisation pattern and then travels elsewhere - I think I like the Martin version better myself. This one is in stereo.

Love this riff - not sure which I prefer, I think the other has the edge...but love the extra improvised bits here.

excellent..... love the Conrads poem and the performance of it....a real mystery going on with the sounds in the second half.. Conrads voice reminds of someone of the Lou Reed album the Raven

This is wild! Strangely attractive, inspite of the voltage noises you push through my head. A couple of great guitar licks, around 2:30 and love the rhythm guitar riff around 5:45. Your percussion work is top notch.
