HOLE OF BURNING ALMS

Dave Pajo’s pivotal role in crucial groups like Slint and Tortoise wrote the book on instrumental rock. In his many 'M' guises, the Papa has taken us on a trip through lucid, bright-electric sounds - sometimes wordless, occasionally brutal, and often beautiful all the same. Collecting together 12 rare moments of pleasure from singles, B sides, and Christmas cards, Hole of Burning Alms is the perfect introduction to Pajo’s sonic adventurism for the uninitiated. And there’s some special treats for those who are a little more familiar too, including a wonderful 17 minute take on The Byrds’ ‘Turn! Turn! Turn!’.
