Shane Edge- Hose Adjuster
The year: 2007, the place: Earth. After an almost five year hiatus, not including several compilation spots and guest appearances, we find Shane Edge back with a refreshing new recording...Hose Adjuster.
This uhm record establishes itself solidly, even in an age where people across the globe are calling an end to such "tard-o tape jams". the beauty and importance of this album stems from the concepts behind it. concepts that i as the writer cannot find...any where. at least not anywhere i'm looking. the concepts i am speaking exist not on a definite plane, but rather as an unspoken soulfulness. a sort of quagmire of typographical errors, steeped with a teabag of overpowering feng-shui type arrangement.
the other amazing quality of this Hose Adjuster joint is the evident change in recording style. Edge has seemingly abandoned the modern standard of recording technique and taken to the refugee of his vehicle. A solid gold Jeep now acts as his alter before which he lays his classic and wire stripped tongue. this mobile recording facility is equipped with not one, not two, not three, but four cassette recording and playback machines.
A certain intimacy is inherently present throughout this album. much of which is due to the situational structure of this recording. in large part, the artistic captivation of Shane Edge is his prolific "say on the spot" ability. here the listener finds him/herself sitting in the passenger seat of Edge's gold chariot. whether it be en route to work, on the road to places abroad, or a simple trip to the local head shop; you are there experiencing the exact moment of inspiration vocalized.
