Recorded live at legendary San Francisco club, The Bottom Of The Hill,
this pair of discs provides a snapshot of two inimitable musical forces
at the height of their respective prowess.
Operating within the bay area's prolific breeding ground, Rumah Sakit
have distinguished themselves as a band that defies convention at every
turn. A savage intercourse erupts between the reckless and the restrained.
Expectations are washed asunder as playful compositions pitch and roll
like the ocean, building into sweeping crescendos and then crashing down
with a striking level of poise and control.
For nearly a decade, Chicago's Sweep The Leg Johnny have toured and played
with a passion that has not only built them a strong and unique musical
foundation, but resulted in a countless amount of respect and admiration
from their peers worldwide. Their sound is solid as steel, yet almost
incomprehensible in the depth of its subtlety. Pulsating rhythms hold
the body mesmerized, while intertwining melodies and fragmented vocals
resonate with a sense of desperate energy
