Wattle & Daub
Strapping Fieldhands
Released:
Jun 1996
Label:
Shangri-La, Inc.
"Ben Franklin Airbath" is a perfect GBV rip, and Wattle and Daub has moments of radio normal-ness, but this is Strapping Fieldhands, so even if there is a riff that makes sense to the common listener, things will get weird at some point. "Abandoned by Demeter," a fine and salty sailor tale, opens with someone approximating Tuvan throat singing (and doing a pretty good job of it) years before it became a hip phenomenon. That's classic Fieldhands -- way ahead of everybody when it comes to something like Tuvan throat singing, but totally out in left field in every other respect.
