 Not cow tilting.

Like a trip to Howard Finster's house from Atlanta or Athens, there is a lot of hillbilly poker to be played on Supercluster's first album. For those uninitiated, hillbilly poker is a driving game, specifically while driving in the backcountry of Georgia, waving at everyone in any yard or on any porch and, for points, see who waves back. It is a variable game, one that rewards with repeated playing, as you learn how to elicit the "wave back". This is not cow tilting! Rewards are not immediate. Sometimes, waving is not enough, you need to connect to the person you are waving at. Supercluster is no different. There is a lot of music to connect to here, and you need to know how to relate. How to play the game. Expect the unexpected. Know that you will be rewarded for jumping and playing. Listen and enjoy, you are at Howard's house! Lots to see and experience, with no expectations, exhortations, or agenda.
There are the sounds of mandolins and campfire tunes. There are the sophisticated electric guitars adding to the new country rock vocals awaiting you. Occasional saw playing and unusual percussion. There are those strangely familiar Grateful Dead and roadhouase riffs mixed with the Talking Heads styled vocals as a fiddle drifts in to soothe your drunken soul. Do I hear French avant garde horns with tinges of Stephen Brown and Benjamin Lew's Tuxedomoon musings?? Gospel notes remind you that you should be thinking about Howard, not where your next high might be. Reminders of a party atmosphere of Athens B-52's scene with an older, chilled, and less frantic Pylon mixed in.
Highly recommended for anyone old enough to remember REM and Pylon playing college homecomings (like me!)...and those young enough to be raiding their parents vinyl collection looking for those gems of the 80's but with a bent towards the 2010's.
