Finally we have an answer to what Zappa might have meant when he sang of Cosmic Debris. Using homemade instruments, the inner guts and wires of the keyboards, KE spin a web of fractured electronica that you might be able to dance to if you are up for a seizure, which also may be suitable for prayer, assuming your god has put you on the wrong side of salvation and you are hitting him up for one last shot at grace.

The titles here may be daunting (hell, try and get past the band’s name on the first try) but "skulldrummantra," "Blikktztunddonner" and "erakkin zombees" are just disorienting enough to get you in the mood for the tunes themselves; it pays to be open to new sounds, and KE deliver them. The result is a crazed, yet oddly comforting listen that shakes you out of whatever seat your in, and puts you in a new spot in the room. You might float there, or get thrown; your choice.
