Jim Shepard - Pick Through The Wreckage With A Stick LPZaius Tapes is proud to announce the repress of Jim Shepard's dark, cathartic masterpiece, 'Picking Through The Wreckage with A Stick' lp. Originally released by Siltbreeze in 1995, it seemed no plans were in order to see it in print again, so we took matters into our own hands. And you will all be the better for it! 'Wreckage bears little to no resemblance to Shepard's proto metal prog rock band, Vertical Slit. If anything it follows the trajectory

yet Bobby's presence is undeniable

The first full-length vinyl from the band since the self released "If You Can't Find A Partner Use A Wooden Chair" from 2016

It will also re-arrive this summer on DFA this summer with its successor

recorded under the leadership of the drum crazy colleague of Albert Ayler

the mixtapes I made for others

while the B-side incorporates more electronics and field recordings though still having the piano as the focal point

his 10-track debut album

It’s damaged and addictive and also kind of pop

but some of the songs feel as though they were precipitated by a personal apocalypse

Toivonen employs a broader palette of sounds compared to his previous work
