those who say oklahoma is a red dirt-infested wasteland are clueless. anvil salute are the finest that norman, oklahoma (just outside of okcity) have to offer. now, that may not seem like much but in reality, anvil salute are true kingpins. "a discreet history of bone" is taken from a live show this past april. the players include gabe wingfield (who runs the maritime fist imprint) and r. loftiss (of the magical gray field recordings) and the music is heavy on the jams but easy on the ears. the electric wreckage here is nothing short of beautiful. and tribal flow mixes with free-flowing psychedelia to offer up something sensational and new. but the ragas? theyve simply gone home.
