Fat Day is nominally a Boston hardcore band, but over time they've morphed into something deeply other. Instead of just aping old moog or fluxus records, they translate the on-top-of-the-beat herky jerk of a tight, fists-flying unit into vintage synth arrangements, chirruping game call pieces, or marching band music. Careening tempo shifts & a singer who can successfully mimic a cat getting it's tail yanked, plus string quartets, odd beepings, accordion, alto sax, french horn, sousaphone, bagpipe. Also, this is said to be a concept record about a lost underwater world of lizards who perhaps take over the earth. Even after reading all the lyrics it's impossible to tell. There's even a few moments of Ft. Thunder-style noise. Help from New England couldn't-do-it-without-ems like Jeremy Harris (Lucky Dragons), Sam Rowell (Eloe Omoe) & Dreamhouse. 6th & final album.
