"Tourrorists!" (Abduction 034) 2006
|
|
Let's Roll. Abduction Records presents the fourth full-length
from Oakland, California's one-man detonator, POREST. "Tourrorists!" is
a diabolical luxury excursion through swirling Mid Eastern
psych-rockers, contraband cut-ups, illegal pop epics, instrumental
songs of political sabotage and belittling little ditties
about travel, terror and more. This album is a lit-fuse,
bound to be banned! Featured are special musical guests including
Finland's Aavikko. Discover the awful truth about becoming
a U.S. citizen. Bear witness to the tragic disco anthem of
a Guantanamo escapee. Learn the inner-secrets of an emerging
global cannibalism trade and get powerful information on
some of the most exciting terror cells operating both in
and outside of the United States today! 5,000 Americans died
to bring you this album...and 5,000 more will die if you
don't buy it RIGHT NOW!!! |

| "Mood Noose" (Resipiscent
006) 2005 |
| The third Porest
full length is an eclectic spectrum of harnessed multi-instrumental
chaos in
the form of razor-scored melodies, anthro-apologist cut-ups,
brute ambience, mythological
dramatizations and swirled radio psychedelia. It's a very sexy
schizophrenia when you travel
up so many pigeon holes that you can't distinguish limber noise
antics from rewritten histories,
but therein lies a friendly noose with your name written all
over it! So suck on this perverted
whim-sickle as you're strong-armed into a third world of original
and stolen sound.... where
lethal 14th century field recordings cuddle with flatline,
drunken domesticity in a festive, fertile melancholy...where
conspiratorial bird calls pay homage to serpentine vaudevillian
charlatans
at 10-cent jazz gigs before reciting the poetry to end all
genders. "Mood Noose" is the relative antithesis
of aural SPAM...a scrubber for the bloody stuff past your
ears. So get hung up NOW
before someone spoils it all by cutting you down! |

| "I Remember Syria" (Sublime Frequencies
009) 2004 |
| This 2-disc release will induce
hallucinatory armchair culture shock to those who
know how to listen with three ears. Recorded and surgically
assembled in Porest
fashion from two trips to the magnificent country of Syria
in 1998 and 2000, it's a
jaw-dropping expose' of music, interviews, radio collage, news
fragments and field recordings from one of the least-known
quarters of the Arab world. Syria has been politically and
culturally exiled for decades by the Western media, leaving
little known
of its rich heritage of art, music and culture. This is a unique
sound document from a small but highly influential corner of
the Middle East currently charting high on the list
of endangered Arab republics. |

| " Prude Juice for the Heritage Swinger" (Seeland
528) 2003 |
| Porest's debut full-length CD is
a collection of rearranged sonic realities strategically
stacked with maniacal cut-ups, exploitative pop tunes, hilarious dialogues
and imaginary
radio dramas. Somewhere between the manic and the meditative, "Prude
Juice" blurs the truth and lies about sheep, laws, paranormal misogyny,
Gamelan-soaked war veterans and diseases known well to those who have
ever reluctantly caressed the cancerous underbelly of Americana. Porest
spits the distilled juice all over the concrete and pieces the tiny pillage
back together like an insolent jigsaw. |
