Sorry if this has been posted already:
there's a clip of a new tarrat song "one reason" at
http://www.chophouserecords.com/diaries/chr_diary.php It's actually very good! Well, there's some female vocals overdubbed on top, but the music is amazing, I think.
They want you to e-mail feedback at
feedback@chophouserecords.com I love the production values--just pretty chill, live, unembellished sounding. Hopefully they release some music like this. I like it better than the Voivod-s/t--this has a nice guitar solo and melodic bass line towards the end, they need to do more improvisation like this. Everything on voivod s/t had a kind of rushed, "this is a song" type of feel, very chorus verse chorus. On this, they're just kind of playing, and playing very well...

I also really like the production values on this, they've got to make an album that sounds like this--everything sounds really natural. Natural bass, guitar, drums, like they all just plugged in their instruments and statred playing. Like they walked into a guitar center and started playing on whatever instrument they picked up. Not too many effects, just amped instruments, natural sounding drums, nothing sounds too weird or heavy or unnatural in the recording. It's like if they went to someone's house and played someone else's instruments--perfect. The production on too many of their albums, the self-titled album, Phobos, Angel Rat, etc.--sometimes it's too unnatural for me. Phobos was too unnaturally raw, too "forcedly" raw and heavy sounding, the self titled was a little overproduced and too forcedly "loud" and the bass was hard to hear, Negatron just was produced too weirdly/industrially, Angel Rat had too much reverb on EVERYTHING, etc.
Here, it's just...a band playing good music recorded naturally!
