Since the subject of Trance Syndicate has come up, does anyone know if new material by Drain is in the works? I thought "Offspeed and In There" was a good bit of "trip-hop", a much better direction than the grunge-noise of their first record. In fact, "Offspeed and In There" sounds like exactly like Wagon Christ's "Throbbing Pouch." The Drain album is just more complicated. ________________ Rodney Perkins mailto:rdperkins@earthlink.net

If music is complicated, I wouldn't listened to it. Music is for FUN... Wagon Christ's "Throbbing Pouch" album , along with Luke Vibert's "Big Soup" are probably two best albums I've ever heard. So I really want to hear Drain, can you give me some info on them ? Where are they releasing ? Maybe I don't even know what I've missed.... thanks rob

Drain is a "trip-hop" project by King Coffee, the drummer for The Butthole Surfers. Unlike other lousy attempts techno attempts by BH Surfer alumni (anyone hear the Jack Officers? UGH!), this one really takes off. In the context of Drain, I use the term "complicated" to refer to the variety of sounds and dense layering. Like "Throbbing Pouch", "Offspeed and In There" is built around hip-hop style beats and jazzy instrumental loops. The Drain album throws everything in the mix and uses a seemingly unlimited set of samples; Harry Partch, Erik Satie, gamelan, North African music, "exotica", etc. are appropriated or used with skill. I like it and wouldn't mind hearing more. Drain's full-length LP/CD is entitled "Offspeed and In There" on Trance Syndicate. There is a Drain EP (don't remember the title) but it should be dated around 1994. Don't go near that. There must be a WWW site somewhere. Anyone know?
