Death Don't Have No Mercy CD (2007)
 $10.15
Part of what makes the disc special is the instrumentation. David DacksALL ABOUT JAZZ NEW YORKDeath Don't Have No MercyAndy Haas/Don Fiorino < Resonantmusic (2005) By Florence Wetzel John Lennon once said that the world is run by insane people for insane purposes. Good, we need more protest music. Age old slices of Americana like “Battle Hymn of the Republic” and the national anthem itself gain poignancy with the juxtaposition of American-identified instruments (dobro, fife) with “foreign” ones (Korean piri, North African lotar) suggesting an uneasy but fascinating coexistence of different worlds. Haas and Fiorino have crafted a powerful anti-war statement without using any words. And this disc is a disturbing rumination on violence and culture clashes. Best of all, this is an extraordinary recording, a stimulating blend of sounds and cultures fueled by great passion. Haas is one of the most adept electronic manipulators around; his electronics aren’t the usual delay plus harmonizer settings, they act as a third lead instrument summing up both players contributions within a fearsome landscape. So what’s an ordinary citizen to do? Songs on this album are positively chilling, with tunes sounding like the aural equivalent of crime scenes. Haas takes on various wind instruments while Fiorino coaxes some strange stringed sounds from his arsenal. One response is to make music, and Death Don’t Have No Mercy is a clear response to the current insanity—namely the shameful war America is waging in Iraq. EXCLAIM (Canada)Destination Out: Year in Review 2006Death Don’t Have No Mercy (Resonantmusic)Former Martha and the Muffins saxophonist Andy Haas had a busy year, releasing three excellent discs; Death Don’t Have No Mercy is the strongest and most affecting.
