Escape-Ism - Charge Of The Love Brigade

ESCAPE-ISM — the found-sound dreamdrama— are back in action & out in front. And
this time, they’re leading a “Charge of the Love Brigade. ”This “charge” isn’t the
traditional scramble across a muddy, bloody field though, like in the days of yore. This
one is a furtive insinuation into the senses of the tuned-in listener.

Their fifth record, and fourth “sound” record — (the third one was “A Protest Against
Sound”- an entirely silent LP) — “Charge of the Love Brigade” is revolutionary in its
own right. Besides being packed with tunes — super-hits such as “Black Gold,” “Last
Of The Sellouts,” “The Rebel Outlaw,” & “Fire in Malibu,” for exam- ple, Charge of the
Love Brigade proposes a reformation of the traditional notes and scales; an entire
new sound alphabet!

That’s right, ESCAPE-ISM —the “act of musical vandalism”— famous for their
development of new prototypes for stomping & smashing, are reforming the scales,
chords, & notes (e.g. A, B, F#, etc) that comprise musical literacy to achieve the
group’s primary aim: the repurposing of music as we know it. Though many
musicians of note have operated their instruments with "alternative tunings," up
until now no one has obliterated tuning absolutely or abolished leper-notes for the
destruction of bourgeois society.

According to ESCAPE-ISM, this will have a very profound effect: “Music will no longer
be cordoned off from the rest of experience as a commodified, specialty freak show,
but instead be a pastime which can be practiced and enjoyed –not only by nonmusicians 
and amateurs– but also by plant life, wild animals, and even inanimate
objects such as rocks.

“The violent overthrow of musical conventions will lead to the reintegration of
humanity into the natural order, the reordering of life itself into a cosmic congruity. 

This means the convention of time itself will be ended.” Like so-called nature itself,
the ESCAPE-ISM group is also on a “loop.”

Play “Charge of the Love Brigade” and listen as ESCAPE-ISM go “over the top” against
the note-lepers of accepted musicality in a world premiere of a new upside-down
antiscale
