HIVE 35 RECORDINGS

DEBUT ALBUM FROM SQUIRTYWORM!

"No More Masterpieces (2002 - 2013)" marks Ho-Ag's final album release. Stitched together from unreleased studio misfits and digital oddities, the album creates an in-depth look at the many faces the band has worn throughout the years, from apocalypto noise-rock ("Cadavers on Parade," "Let All Things Be Terrors") to brainy prog ("About to Rot," "Unreal City") and atmospheric drifts ("You Will Be Eaten"). Here you'll find shards of material from every lineup the band ever went through. There's the current lean four-piece, the sprawling and reckless days of the Patrick Kim/Nkls Ward (Hallelujah the Hills) era, and even some echoes of the original formative group with Dave Dines and Jonathan Ruhe (The Gersch). There are also a handful of home demos from Matt Parish and electronic works from Tyler Derryberry.  All in all, it's just the kind of massive, messy farewell you'd expect from a band this tough to pin down.

Ho-Ag finally return this winter with their first full-length since 2008. The new album, World-Destroying Zig-Zags (Hive 35), busts open with 13 unlucky songs of red alert siren screams and deep sea creep-outs.  In proper Ho-Ag form, rhythms do the stutter-step and careful chords unravel to madness, but Zig-Zags pushes the band in extra directions. A four-piece since 2009, the band has buckled down into its most resourceful and powerful effort yet.

Available all over the internets and the finest record shops on February 19.
