Sloow Tapes - CS 60

Archival release from those hazy early 90s Sint-Niklaas adrenaline soaked days by Tractor, a band that rose out of the ashes of Philadelphia '69 (drummer Jan D'Hooghe and guitarist Jimmy Van Landeghem) and Doodt Illegaal (bassplayer Djackies) with Jan writing most of the songs on a one string acoustic guitar. Garagerock and punk molested by the likes of Slayer, Ministry, Butthole Surfers and especially the drummer Danny Arnold Lommen (Gore, Caspar Brotzmann Massaker). This cassette collects what's left from their short existence (1989-1992): two live shows (JH Clichee and Café Commerce) plus a demo. Edition of 50 copies.
