about
不管你聽了幾次 — 狂速、暴力、不可預期。(Z)erpents的音樂將自己從過去的那一瞬間起給抹滅，就像是一塊被避免被測速照相給捕捉到的車牌。像John Zorn或Melt Banana的作品，當人們無法接受這世上最抽象的編曲時，總有人會喜愛。即使慢慢的發了霉，它仍早已侵入你的肺部。即使地心緩緩加熱了溫泉的輻射水池，你還是會燃燒殆盡。大自然和人類的國家暴力都完全忽視在其中生活的生物。
Speed. Violence. Unpredictability, even the second time you hear a piece. (Z)erpents’ music erases itself the moment it’s past, like a license plate avoiding capture by a surveillance camera. Like the work of John Zorn or Melt Banana, one gets the sense even from this most abstract composition that the world that the artists are seeing is bad and they don’t like it. Even if black mold grows naturally, it still gets into your lungs.
Z)erpents是由一群更迭的音樂家所組成，他們的演出致力於即興爵士樂和曲折的氛圍營造。在擁有巨大音牆的同時，空間中還有成員間具現各自的方向。(Z)erpents由吉他手Paul Lai - 洛杉磯的前衛搖滾樂隊Upsilon Acrux 的長期成員，打擊樂手 - Joseph Mauro，合成器、drone、人聲 - Swivel Moonberry和Richard Lawson利用模組合成器營造出他們的氛圍，薩克斯風樂手 - 小劉則以邪惡的騷動使整體昇華至另一個境界。
(Z)erpents, is a fluctuating collective of musicians who dedicate performances to improvisational jazz and drone meanderings. While unafraid of owning a wall of sound, they allow fellow members the space to realize direction within the fray. (Z)erpents are: guitarist, Paul Lai - a long-standing member of the epic, Los Angeles-based progressive rock collective, Upsilon Acrux; percussionist, Joseph Mauro; synths, drones and vocalizer, Swivel Moonberry; Richard Lawson provides atmosphere via a solid modular synth presence; and Xiao Liu makes a sublime and unholy ruckus aboard his sax.
