Jim White (Dirty Three)

Description:

Produced by Guy Picciotto (Fugazi)! Post-rock legends Dirty Three have been shaking up the international indie scene with their instrumental post-rock since 1992. After a career spanning more than 40 years, drummer and thrilling beat beater Jim White drops his first solo album "ALL HITS: MEMORIES" on DRAG CITY! The ambitious title of the album is backed up by the participation of Guy Picciotto, vocalist and guitarist of Fugazi, as a producer! Both legends have been plowing the alterna field since the 80's, and the content of the album has been sharpened and honed. The tension between Dirty Three and Fugazi that can be heard on the previously released "Names Make The Name" is mixed together, and the contrast between Jim's pounding percussion and the sunlight piano that is inserted into the song is beautiful. It's a must-have! Jim converts anything he deems appropriate, such as a mallet or a brush, into an instrument for this album.Jim's unfathomable sense to weave such a mystical sound in his first solo work brings tears to my eyes!
