Fans of either post-metal sludge slingers Intronaut or one-man instrumental army Cloudkicker probably already know that the two acts did a bit of a unique tour this fall. The rest of you need to sit down and get edumucated.
You see, Cloudkicker is a one-man home studio project, meaning that it typical doesn't do any kind of touring. But what if you're Ben Sharp and you do want to get on the road and play some live shows? What do you do then? You get Intronaut to come along as your backing band, of course.
Fortunately for those of us who didn't get to catch this potentially once-in-a-lifetime lineup, Cloudkicker released a live album from the tour back in November. For a taste of the magic that went down, check out "Push It Way Up!", the album's closing track. It's as rife with good grooves as the rest of Cloudkicker's stuff, and the latter portion of its nearly seven minute running time consists of what feels like an extended jam section, even if it isn't unscripted at all. Headphones wouldn't be remiss for this one.
