Night Slaves is ordinarily a two-piece consisting of two of the mainstays of the Buffalo, N.Y. music scene, David Kane and John Toohill. Here they are joined by Justin Rowland from Soul Butchers. This flexi presents two songs that were originally used in a live score performance to accompany the classic Japanese silent film, A Page of Madness. These electro-prog tracks are reminiscent of the Italian horror soundtrack boom of the late twentieth century, with a slightly more aggressive, punker vibe. Housed in more elaborate packaging than is customary for a flexi, this release succeeds on all levels. –Art Ettinger (Swimming Faith, swimmingfaithrecords.com)
