Album Notes

Rough Cuts marks the further evolution of a premier improvisational poet and vocalist. With a deep sense of calm self-assurance, Arol Wulf-Zendik weaves her wisdom into an evocative sonic tapestry - combining word and voice, the political and the personal. Atmospheric, psychedelic blues rock and roll emerges full-blown, with improvised lyrics and music rich in confidence and artistic power. The first in a series that makes Arol's new music available as quickly as possible, Rough Cuts captures the raw immediacy of art in creation.

DJ LORD LITTER from Berlin, says:

* "ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING! This is the intense and unique quality I want on my shows. Arol's voice KILLS with EMOTION!! I will listen to your music often for my own enjoyment and inspiration. It was great to get another absolutely individual, different, KILLER sound! Uuuuhh....that voice!"

*"They've compared her to Jim Morrison. Well, the last time I had such an intense experience listening to music was when I first heard John Lydon's Public Image Limited Metal Box Release...you are either absolutely fascinated by this or you run away scared...deep, intense stories...hypnotizing, psychedelic groove. This is unbelievable."


Ian of 432 Miles Magazine says:

*"Arol sounds like a female Jim Morrison...real good timing."

*"A true artist, a fine band."


Rapid River Magazine of Asheville, NC says:

*"Arol Zendik sets the tone of each song with her smoky vocals and pointed lyrics. Their grooving, twisting rock sounds are tight."

*"Every sound and every song is completely spontaneous, completely improvisational. The dedication and discipline to their artistic endeavors is quite amazing."


Mountain Xpress Magazine of Asheville, NC says:

*"Although the band works together in their own studio, no notes are memorized, no songs rehearsed - what you hear onstage and in their CDs is an experience wrung from the moment."

*"The beauty of impulse is foremost in their hearts."
