Fressing Heads by Doc Wör Mirran
Some bands tour to support a new release. Not DWM! They exhibit paintings for a new release! This CD was released to coincide with a showing of paintings and drawings from the "Plop Art" series of works by Joseph B. Raimond, shown at Galerie Nord in Nuernberg, from Febraury 26th through March 24th, 1994. All cover art from the CD comes from this series of works and were part of the exhibition. Full color cover throughout. A much better mix of one song from the Garage Pretensions project is again released here, and features Axel Ruhland and Mike Pelzo of M. Walking On The Water. Other outstanding performances by John Griffith as well as Antje Haensel from the Merlons. One track, recorded with John Mervin in 1983 in San Francisco, and released on the very first ever MT release "Numb Tongue, No Taste" is rereleased here with a new vocal track. More song and vocal oriented than many DWM releases, which usually tend to be more experimental, instrumental affairs, this was the first major release recorded and released after the departure of Bernard H. Worrick. Other performances included Joseph B. Raimond, Ralf Lexis, Peter Schuster, Andropovski, Theodor T. ThrongoMob, Frank Abendroth, Oliver Van Essenberg, Peter Kern and Michael Shulz-Pernice. A limited edition of 50 copies was produced that included a second non playable, hand painted and numbered CD. An interesting footnote: several copies were misspressed by the manufacturer with Reggae music instead!
