Legendary Japanese musician Damo Suzuki teams up with Liverpool’s bombastic psych outfit Mugstar for this wickedly potent blast of Krautrock. As Damo Suzuki’s Network, the musician has spent the last thirty years playing live, improvised music in such collaborative settings, so it should be no surprise that he sent the Liverpool four-piece explicit instructions not to practice or plan for their musical meet-up back in 2012. Recorded live, the album will be aptly titled Start from Zero, and today we listen to this powerful cut of motorik rock freakout, “Waken to the Night“. On the track, Suzuki’s absorbing presence is on full display, as he explodes into a creative volcano of vocal activity, while the lads in Mugstar prod him on thru an acid scorched tour of the apocalyptic blues. Start From Zero is due out on Important Records, and though it doesn’t yet have a release date, we can report that this LP will be limited to only 500 copies, packaged in a heavy-duty gatefold sleeve.
