a shame, as I really like the idea of them
Re: Light Bolt - just a little more finesse with the sculpting of feedback... would do the trick. ok maybe a LOT more.
would some deep tones and almost "musicality" be too much to ask for?
and some kind of engaging rhythm section / bottom end wouldn't hurt either.
also, saw A.M. Temple at Terry Riley's 80th B-day concert last year and almost completely blocked it out of memory. inviting every hateful insult to hippies ever uttered -- drug damaged, pathetic over-the-hill losers swaying in a pseudo trance in Royce Hall, UCLA, while producing boring boring annoying cliche sounds without a hint of swing or psychoactivity. fucking embarrassing.
