Brooming Mephitic Blast (CD-R)
by Hototogisu

Co-released by Soopa and Esquilo Records as the first volume of the "Live Series" collaboration, "Brooming Mephitic Blast" documents seminal psychedelic noise band Hototogisu's brain-melting show in Porto, on February 26, 2005.

This concert has since long attained legendary status, much due to the unthinkable volume generated onstage, which prompted the sound technician to turn off the P.A., with no perceptible changes in the sound pressure experienced by the audience, and also by its finale, with Hototogisu's Marcia Bassett and Matthew Bower leaving their sonic arsenal playing by itself and sitting in the front row among the audience, also becoming spectators to the entity they had invoked.
