about

First physical format release of The Opawa 45s 'Silver Screen Guitar'. This album represents the band's initial shift from slow '50s/'60s instrumental guitar work into long-form improvised soundscapes. These tracks were recorded live to 1/4-inch tape in 'The Hut' at the Ilam School of Fine Arts in February 2018.

Hate
by Gate

supported by 5 fans who also own “Silver Screen Guitar”

It's been a very busy weekend for Michael with this being the 2nd Gate album(one new and this reissue) to come out along with a solo project. Originally released in 1990, this is the polar opposite of the other Gate record and sounds like it was recorded in Hell's garage in another galaxy, because no one on this planet has caught up even now, 27 years on. It's completely deranged and monumentally magnificent. Gavin Hellyer
