  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Only release of Baltimore/Washington D.C. trio. Recorded live to 4 track cassette between 1996 -1998. Partly an ode to the city of Baltimore and its rich history. Artwork by the inimitable Martha Colburn.

    Chuck Bettis - Electric Bass and Rhodes Piano
    Josh Blair - Drums and Electronics
    Jerry Lim - Guitars

    Artwork by Martha Colburn - marthacolburn.com

    Originally released by Dog N' Pony in a ltd edition of 1000

    "Bad ass name for a trio right? WWill actually started as a six-piece (with Franke Vogl and Malcolm McDuffie from Metamatics and Raquel Vogl from Meltdown), but was eventually whittled down to Chuck Bettis on bass, Jerry Lim on guitar and Josh Blair (later of Supersystem and Orthrelm) on drums and electronics. Recorded between '96 and '98, and recently officially issued for the first time, this album is mostly a skronky free jazz affair, with Lim's metallic guitar work subbing in for the squawking horns. It's cool, but only on the chaotic din of "Smoking Bird" and "Copus" do these dudes get into the apocalyptic shit worthy of their moniker." - Chris Richards, The Fader
