Zach Hill's Memo to the Man [MPFree]

Zach Hill’s music is insane. I mean really insane. Some of you may remember the made-up band from ‘Brass-eye’s’ 2001 Paedophile special, ‘Smash my brother’s face in’. Imagine that mixed with elements of dubstep, indecipherable lyrics and a cacophony of weird and wonderful sounds and your halfway there. I know I’m not really selling it but it’s the kind of music you’re either going to love or hate.

Hill’s a drummer by trade, plying his wares with Marni Stern and Hella and his
second album, ‘Face Tat’ (Sargent House), features collaborations with No Age and
Devendra Banhart. It’s understandably garnered some mixed reviews, but there’s no
one out there making music quite like this. Today’s MPFree, ‘Memo to the man’, is
the opening track from the album.
