Joan of arc - in rape fantasy and terror sex we trust

1sheet in progress. Forgive me. Please.

If you have questions call and we will try to answer them.

'in rape fantasy …' was assembled as a loose sequel to it's conservative bigger brother 'so much staying alive and lovelessness'.
recorded simultaneously, they were intended to be a single album - but they grew…

Some songs were written in the studio before and after a friend/ enemy tour.
Some songs came from tim and mike kinsella fleshing out fractured guitar pieces brought in by sam zurich.
The epic 22 minute title piece came from tim not trying to do side 2 of bauhaus' "the sky's gone out," but from the attempt to capture the effect that it had on him when he was 10yrs old and accidentally bought it before he was ready to hear it.

Fragile childlike paranoia as it comes in this climate. Sense / no sense coming apart / together. Cultural information overload making sense out of this mess or accepting that everything is movable and nothing is fixable. Clean twisted guitars & sweet voices unglitching just the same as laptops and found sounds. Learning to breathe in this air.
Everything has a shadow side. Everything.

Friend/Enemy -10songs . Friend/Enemy is the new release from the confounding and prolific collective that brought us Cap'n Jazz, Joan of Arc and Owls. Spattering, loud, wild and moody. Lyrical twists forming scenarios previously unimagined.

Songs began with a loose foundation of guitar and vocal parts from Tim Kinsella and Todd Mattei and were built up from there with drums, bass, banjos, pianos and all manner of noisemakers and ghosts by this stellar group of musicians:

Tim Kinsella - guitars, singing, etc (owls, joan of arc) Todd Mattei - guitars, singing, etc (joan of arc) Jim Becker - pedal steel, banjo (paulina hollers, califone) Caryn Culp - backing vocals (plastic crime wave) Graeme Gibson - organ (mansion) Emma Grace Ketner - backing vocals Zac Hill - drums (hella, team sleep) Andy Lansangan - electric piano, marimba (90 day men) Nick Macri - bass (euphone, the zincs, sunny day real estate) Chris Powell - drums, percussion, piano (need new body) Azita Youssefi - piano (bride of no no) Sam Zurick - bass (joan of arc, owls)

Recorded and mixed by Graeme Gibson at Clava and The Slabb, Chicago, November 2001 and January 2002.
