Finally, "Shapeshifter Blues" was commissioned by and released in an extremely limited run of only seventy-five CDRs. While described by the band as "wall-of-sound space-age blues", I hear a generally restrained and successful effort (especially the fourth track) patiently examining the timbres of guitar- and electronics-produced drones, quiet rumblings not unlike distant rolling thunder, and sundry small detonations. A bit of bombast slips in as track three evolves, but the album regains and maintains its equilibrium right up to the gorgeous, haunting coda "Lonely Peoples Parade".
