Orthrelm: Josh Blair, Mick Barr.
Personnel: Mick Barr (guitar); Josh Blair (drums).
Recording information: 04/2004-08/2004.
Few albums will ever test your endurance like Orthrelm's OV. No vocals, no bass, just intense -- really intense -- repetition from guitarist Mick Barr and drummer Josh Blair. In fact, for much of the single-track 45-minute long album, it seems like Barr and Blair are in a three note rut that they simply cannot break out of. But then we hit the 23:39 mark, and the percussion finally changes, and by 19:35, we are 'treated' to an unaccompanied guitar break. The average listener probably won't be able to sit through the whole shebang, but if you do, you should be awarded a prize of some sort. That said, you can bet that most of the '80s-era guitar shredders couldn't keep pace with Barr for this long, without their overpriced, pointy, and signature series instruments falling to pieces -- or spraining their fingers. OV is the perfect soundtrack to blast when you want to get revenge on your next-door neighbors. ~ Greg PratoThe Wire (p.62) - "The piece shifts again and again, sometimes almost imperceptibly, other times like a sharp left turn on a dark road with the lights out....Impressive..."

Baker has been making solid, if unspectacular, records for several years now, trying to recapture the grace of Rapture. Despite several good songs and uniformly strong vocals, Rhythm of Love doesn't have enough flair to win back a mass audience. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
As the 1990s progressed, Anita Baker was sounding more and more contrived. One hoped that someone with so appealing a voice would challenge herself and try something different ...

Louie was christened Louis Jean-Louis Louis in Phoenix, Arizona, 1949. Louie can neither read nor write Music, play any instrument or sing. He does however, possess an enormous capacity for liking music. His major influences have been spike jones, p.g. wodehouse, groucho marx and Richard brautigan. Enough said.Louie's mother was both a doctor and a lawyer. She would hum to Louie late atnight, simultaneously rocking him to sleep while sewing up gashed and lacer-ated drunks in her living room. She often subsequently defended these same miscreants in court against various assault and battery charges. As a consequence, Louie's early life was spent in the relative luxury of a middle class upbringing and it's easy to see where the interwoven themes of blood/love and blood/justice derived from. Louie's father was, oddly enough, an Indian chief. As would be expected, Louie's mom and dad encouraged Louie to follow in their foot-steps. Thankfully, for the music-loving world, Louie inhaled the smoke of a distant fire. Louie's first guitar was a Martin d9 "cat" which he never learned to play and eventually hocked for pennies on the dollar. He desperately needed cash (having drank up all his liquid assets the evening before), this being his "down and out in Paris and London" ...
