Info wydawcy:

Nestled somewhere in between Russ Meyers' nihilistic go-go-dancing booty queen, Henry Mancini's big band martini lounge, kid606's sound-as-attitude mash-ups, and Man or Astroman's apocalyptic "let's get off this planet already" surf anthems, END's debut on Ipecac, "The Sounds of Disaster", captures what hipster rockabilly posers and music nerds everywhere daydream of running out and buying, should news of the apocalypse hit the airwaves.

With track titles like "To Hell With Everyone", "Countdown To The End", "World Went Down", and "Fit To Die", END has made the perfect soundtrack by which to wait for the shit to hit the fan. Equal parts rockabilly, breakcore, white-trash jazz, and DC comic books, the album's twelve cuts are all about the excessive frenzy of just not caring anymore, of pill popping cowboys on mechanical bulls, of dirty cops beating on Gauloise-toting French hipsters.

As Charles Peirce (aka END) fondly reminisces, "it was about 7-8 years ago now when I was living in Rhode Island and we went to some bar to see a rockabilly band or something and everybody had cleared out because the fire alarm was going off - this high-pitched ringing -- but the band just kept playing on. And it was really amazing and just had that entire end of the world feel. A full rockabilly act just playing their hearts out and this crazy high-end screeching behind them.

By now you must be asking the inevitable question: who is Charles Peirce? Charles is NYC-based END. You may remember him from such albums as "Errata" and "Science/Fiction" on Hymen Records, or performing and.......
