Synopsis

Album Description
"Should one ever drive an American muscle car on the German Autobahn, one should make sure Giant Brain's Plume serves as the soundtrack." - Dave Merline, MPH Giant Brain came about as a concept for a group that would fuse all things good about Detroit rock with the improvisational aspects of Krautrock. Andy Sutton (bass, drum programs, general concepts) had played in bands with his brother, Al Sutton, producer of records by such indie rock stalwarts as Big Chief, Don Caballero, and The Laughing Hyenas as well as "stoner rock" acts like Five Horse Johnson and Halfway to Gone. The siblings enlisted the musically and otherwise unemployed Philip Dürr, former lead guitarist of Big Chief and conveniently the only real Kraut in the neighborhood, and Al took the reins as editor/arranger. This Philosophy-101 musical method of thesis/antithesis/synthesis has finally yielded Plume, a merger of Krautrock and stoner rock that will undoubtedly make Daimler-Chrysler wet its corporate trousers with envy at the Teuto-American synergy it can only dream of achieving. A word of caution, though: early versions of Plume have been shown to cause impromptu outbreaks of provocative dancing. Consider yourself warned.
