The Serpentine Similar

Bastro was being reborn, with Grubbs on guitars, keyboards and vocals and Brown on bass. Playing in duo format opened up sound and intention, leaving the need for speed (and the stock in rock) out, while letting in an expanse of brooding, droning acoustic space that highlighted the songs’ serpentine shapes. This was something so radically different as to require a new calling card: henceforth, Gastr del Sol A1. A Watery Kentucky A2. Easy Company A3. A Jar Of Fat A4. Ursus Arctos Wonderfilis B1. Eye Street B2. For Soren Mueller B3. Serpentine Orbit B4. Even The Odd Orbit
