TANGLE

Originally released in 1989 on the band's own Thwart Productions label, Tangle was the first vinyl release from Thinking Fellers Union Local 282.áComing after their debut cassette, Wormed, By Leonard, it shows the band leapfrogging stylistically into a more mature phase of their patented surreal compositional modus operandi. Tracks like the opener, "Sister Hell," foreshadow the band's later evolutionary mutations and was a minor hit in the underground circuit at the time.áThe rest of the album is a sleek maelstrom of crackpot dissonance, noise-rock power balladry, schizo-telepathic improv and some of the finest underground music of the era.áIn short, Tangle isáa template and Proclamation of Intent that presages TFUL's classic 90s releases. Originally produced by their longtime engineer and thaumaturge, Greg Freeman, this reissue is impeccably remastered from the original master tapes by Mark Gergis.áNew and contemporary artwork ties a saucy bow around this astonishing reissue.á LIMITED EDITION OF 500 COPIES!
