Across the street from an abandoned skiing facility in Nashville, Indiana, there stands an A-Frame. From within come the sounds of a guitar amp set to
"3", a bass dug deep, and the snap of drum sticks. The chopped sticks are
the clarifier of the guitar/bass relationship, thus hearing protection is
strictly enforced. Occasional bleeding and consistent sweating are par for
the course. The music associates itself with all conditions including:
humans, diseases, books, films, dead hearts, events predating the big bang,
flight, empty hands, breeding, fire, water, the jesuses and how to not
panic. The sound is tightly wedged between a rock and a roll, hard and
compact, but fresh and piping hot. The final result is direct and spastic; a
bit cryptic, while simultaneously genuine like pay day. We are they. They
are Mikes. Mikes are Push-Pull.
