Comfort Food - Falling Up A Down Escalator

Comfort Food, Already Dead and Darko the Super all gather at some street light lit New York City crossroads. Just up the side walk, a stack of boxes and clutter has accumulated from an adjacent building. Within this debris, all look to see a faint glittering ray of light break the darkness as distant headlights cause a reflection. Upon closer inspection, this unwanted refuse is the last remaining collection of music discs that shimmy before their eyes. Everyone fills their arms and walks away Grunting a MacGyver tune.

Reaching haven, a whisper permeates the room, "lights out everybody", Comfort Food is going to play music. It is much later than you think and the most ominous enigma is Falling Up A Down Escalator. This is extremely hard to describe, each jolt and bounce, smoothly conveyed back to it's origin. A similar awkward occurrence happened once before in 2017 under the dome, it is still a mystery. The music has been playing now, a gang of four people are huddled around a man playing guitar with snake fingers.... The angular rhythms are a cordial warning to all who listen. Don't run away though, Darko the Super calls out your cheap dollar legs and you stumble. A perfect blend of rap and honed punk jazz, with a little verbal homage to a band with initials S.M. Funny since the entire track screams more to another set of initials, J.C. but those are just the contortions Comfort Food is capable of. From the time dad went to the city, through this entire sonic barrage, the loss of hair trying to describe these sounds is surely not a trophy. Daniel Wolff and Jake Marshall are perplexing, each track is stellar, but the real truth is, Falling Up A Down Escalator never ends and it never should.

Released on Already Dead Tapes and Records less than a month ago. This is the third Comfort Food album for the label and is in an edition of one hundred. Just checked... of the previous Already Dead Comfort Food releases, only copy from the label remains. This is a very good indication Falling Up A Down Escalator will sell out as well. With how good this cassette is, it is definite.
