Album Description"A trance masterpiece." -- The Wire After nearly ten years of swimming upstream through the sonic flotsam and jetsam, the folks have gotten freaky, noise is the `new noise', and the No Neck Blues Band remains as relevant as ever. The group's indoor/outdoor audio assaults in upper and lower Manhattan are the stuff of legend, but on Live at Ken's Electric Lake the band took a distinct turn, crossed the Canadian border, and made a sudden diaspora to a rural retreat in the country for a full day's session of acid-head tribal percussion clatter that is utterly different than anything they had put on the public record up to that time. Looser, groovier, and more in the communal hippie state of mind than ever, NNCK's long out-of-print fifth release from 1998 ranks among the finest displays of tribal churn and choogle in the band's thirteenyear history. Neo-dada attacks were swapped for psychedelic good vibrations, and midrange mystery for outdoor atmospherics. This is a peak communal groove moment for New York's most enigmatic, longest-running experimental collective.
