JONATHAN KANE is a Downtown NYC legend -- as co-founder of the no-wave
behemoth Swans and the rhythmic thunder behind the massed-guitar armies of Rhys Chatham and the rock excursions of La Monte Young -- and one of the hardest-hitting drummers on the planet. In his own work, Kane
summons Swans' concussive wallop, Chatham's dense guitar strata, and
the perpetual propulsion of '70s krautrockers Neu, then steers it all
head-on into... the blues. In Kane's high-decibel swagger you'll hear the mind-blowing reinvention of both minimalism and the blues: guitar-driven minimalism propelled into the blues, and the blues exploding into guitar-driven harmonic maximalism.
