A few years in the making, a few tunes made available from the sessions with Chris Otepka & a host of 20 other musicians... including Eric Carlson and Kenny Aronoff.

THE HELIGOATS - The End of All-Purpose (www.greydayrecords.com)
Swirling and whirling about with incredibly fierce, yet still gripping and melodic abandon, this album grabs the listener by the throat with the startling opening song Morning Gloree. The passionate vocals sing over a wildly frantic dervish of ringing guitars, churning basslines, and nonstop steady drums. The cool and diverse arrangements blend elements of rock and jazz into a tastyntuneful mix (dig the scratchy riffing saxophone on Been A Drill). Better still, said arrangements start out fairly mellow and gradually grow into remarkably exciting full-bore crescendos. A solid and satisfying EP CD winner.
