How does one describe Soul Coughing? How about guitar skittering surf-like chicken scratching grooves, backed by blasts of orchestral sounds and random environmental noise from a realtime sampler keyboard player (not a preprogrammed sequencer or click tracked DAT). And, over that, a vocal that shifts midstream from melodies to chant to spoken word to rapping. Produced by Tchad Blake (the engineer for Mitchel Froom and Tom Waits and a Latin Playboy in his spare time), the album captures Soul Coughing's irrepressible live energy as well as lots of eccentric sounds.
