专辑简介
According to the information on the sleeve of this EP, In the Fishtank is a project similar to the Peel Sessions. Koncurrent invites bands with whom they feel a special kinship and have them record a half hour or so of whatever the musicians like in a studio. Nomeansno was the first band to participate in the project (and don't ask me if the project ever went anywhere after this was recorded in 1996) and this little EP is actually quite entertaining. The two tracks that were new to me, "Would Be Alive" and "You're Not One", are both quite good, but it's the remake of "The River" (from Mr. Happy) that is the most remarkable. The session included touring second drummer Ken Kempster and the dual bombast of him and John Wright makes this recording downright excellent. Though sadly Nomeansno no longer tours with a second drummer due to the expense, at least one recording will capture the brilliance of their musical experiment. The only disappointing track on this whole CD is "Big Dick", which strips away the bass and has only vocals over tribalistic drumming. Unfortunately it just isn't enough to carry the song as well as the original. Nevertheless, a great little souvenier to find.
