PLAY FOR TODAY (2010)

HABITAT:

Brixton, Queensland, Norway

REPORTAGE:

Three piece sweeties Bisonics have, in their "Play For Today" debut album, created a hybrid of Punk and Jazz - Junk, both throwaway and addictive. Dependably tricky, touchingly remote, elegantly messy, seriously funny, predictably creative, quietly spoken, slowly fast, Bisonics improvised - with no preparation or rehearsal - nearly 20 songs in eight hours.
Frantic, antic, instant meditations on Life from soup to nuts.
