Comment: it is a release by the Mushrooms In Our Shoes, the Czech Republic based duo whose music is improvised on such musical (non)-instruments as guitars, keyboards, metal, sheets, percussion. This bunch of 10 tracks is a part of the discography of an imprint called CS Industrial 1982-2010. It is a Czech and Slovak industrial scene documentation project. Focusing on noise and industrial-related music coming out of the aforementioned years. More profoundly, it is recorded while two musicians called David Urban and Jan Benedict Nosek decided to make music. They did close in an apartment, which was turned into a home studio. Within just a couple of days of playing, recording, mixing, they had spawned ten compositions. Emotively one can hear lethargic incantations and truly rapturous, freaked-out outbursts and snippets. Because of that I guess the duo has spent the interesting time span in the studio. In fact, not only a final result but the creative process of it is as important. At times it chimes like a pedigree of (electro)-acoustic, improvised and electronic music. And the drumming provides mostly tribal connotations. It is fairly cohesive and intrinsically burning. It was initially released in 1987 by Eastmush Records.
