About This Item
Their third and final album, 1998's Transaction de Novo finds Bedhead destroying the sound it helped forge. No longer concerned with loud and quiet, the quintet uses distortion at it's leisure. Tempos increase at will, chasing wave after wave with no break in sight. Desert-dry guitars jangle along, nearly jaunty at times, journeying through songs with no chorus or bridge. Steve Albini's masterful ear keeps the entire 37 minute affair clean, giving Matt Kadane's vocals the chance to creep above near-mumble. Thankfully, they never do. Album Tracks 1. Exhume 2.
