Buried Treasure

Des Ark- Day of Prole


This was a limited edition demo she did with Noah Howard, and Beth Hoskins, before she left the band in '04 or'05, with Evan Rowe filling in right after. Couple tracks I had only seen on video sites, at a show, or through word of mouth. And as usual, mind-blowingly creepy, loads of tension, and the ever ongoing interpersonal struggles of scorned women and their relationships. Call it riot girl, call it queercore, call it femmepunk, or whatever fancies your keen intellect for gentrifying music, its pure bliss, and all of the misgivings of naivety.

The Tribe has spoken

*Originally a sort of concept album developed by Phil Ranelin and Wendell Harrison, after gathering a large handful of musicians who were active in the Detroit music scene in the early 1970's. Wendell played with Sun Ra in the 60's and later went on to start several other music labels post-session work.

I had just heard a remix of the second track "Vibes from the Tribe" at holygrailers that was off the wall, so I decided to do a little research.
