Rules of taste and decorum mean nothing to Form A Log, as they populate their tracks with chopped nonsense vocals, pummeling acoustic and electronic percussion, and peals of guitar and synth. Far from a cloistered "collage" project, Form A Log approaches tape-based performance from the perspective of a damaged rock band, with each member contributing a personalized chunk of some twisted whole. Form A Log is Container (Spectrum Spools / Mute), Profligate (Not Not Fun), and Rick Weaver (Hausu Mountain).
