Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly-played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

Th' Faith Healers
Live in the WFMU Studios
Engineered by Chris Stubbs
England's Faith Healers appeared on the scene in 1990, coming out of the same Too Pure label stable as kindred spirits Stereolab and PJ Harvey, whom some folks claimed the band fell somewhere between stylistically. While the Healers did share a pronouced leaning towards Kraut-like repetition and also had a strong female presence in vocalist Roxanne Stephen, they easily leave both in the dust in terms of sonic capability; fragile, tense melodies explode into total guitar chaos, basslines lumber like runaway trucks, and as soon as the songs regain some semblance of control, they lose it at the next drop of a hat. They split in 1994 but are amazingly back together for live shows in the USA in support of their recent Peel Sessions disc (Ba Da Bing Records. http://www.badabingrecords.com/), playing live North Six 3/27, the Mercury Lounge 3/29 and here on Brian's show. Lineup: Roxanne Stephen: vocal, Tom Cullinan: guitar, vocal, Ben Hopkin: bass, Joe Dilworth: drums. Enormous, Gigantor Thank You to Ben Goldberg, Chris, Adrienne, and th' Healers. Songs today: This Time / Get the F*** Out of My Face / Love Song / New #2 / Moona Inna Joona / (short chat) / Reptile Smile / It's Easy Being You / Heart Fog / Hippy Hole / Don't Jones Me
