Track Listing
- Pipeline Drive
- Release Me
- Catapult
- Talk To Me
For Rhode Island followers of David Tessier’s former collaborations and output, Taurus presents the joyously familiar: this EP breathes new life into Pipeline Drive’s riff-fest. Catapult reminds us that there was a time in the 80’s when it was perfectly acceptable to marry heavy guitars, synths and crooning vocals. It is Release Me that stars, however, and suggests that Radiohead can retire now – Tessier has it covered with a strong dose of 70’s pomp and grace to spare. Taurus is a prime medley of Tessier’s talents, whetting the appetite for more. This is where you start.

The second EP release from New Bedford’s Nature/Nurture. Now expanded from a trio to a quartet, N/N stowed away in the Wamsutta Mills over the winter months in their freezing space and tracked the songs you hear on this EP. The shorter, noisier sound of EP001 has given way to longer, more nuanced songs with softer dynamics and a few keyboards added to the familiar wall of distorted guitars, bass, and drums. The entire mess was mixed and mastered into shape by Brian Cass of Overclock, Inc. Featuring re-recorded versions of 006 (from EP001) and 008 (from the now unavailable NBRock.net compilation) and 4 brand new songs.

‘Red’ signals the return of Mark Cutler as a solo artist (with the help of many gifted friends including co-producer Emerson Torrey). A gifted guitarist and award-winning singer/songwriter from Providence, Rhode Island, Mark continues to add unique entries to the great American songbook and leads a variety of roots-rock bands. He spins tales about men who drink alone or hover over a lover. He sings stories about ghosts, midget wrestlers, walking in the woods, walking in the night, being remembered, just being alive and getting used to this. Like the character Travis Bickle, Mark will ‘play anytime and anywhere’ and sometimes he’ll show up alone with his guitar and sing for you whether you like it or not.

Crotchthrottle is an enigma wrapped in a mystery stuffed in a taco, and deep fried in inscrutability. Details on the precise band line-up and history are hazy, but Jeremy Withers (of The Inclined is somehow involved. Some have said that this is his attempt to cash in on the recent abstract noise-drone boy-band trend, while others claim he is a mere studio lackey controlled by the shadowy Heiemeier Axia. Whatever the facts may be, the music is clearly the product of a deranged mind (or possibly a malevolent hive-mind) bent on hypnotizing the youth of America with repetitive “motorik” rhythms, constantly shifting drones, odd song structures and studio-manipulated melodies.
