Larval - This 18 March 2007 interview with
Bill Brovold
explores the fluid nature of the group's definition over
time and the protean nature of its organic sound. This
interview just followed release of the 2-CD set Surviving
Death / Alive Why? (Cuneiform Rune 248 / 249). The
creative principal behind the walls-of-sound approach is
guitarist, composer, producer, and visual artist Bill
Brovold. Larval’s fifth release is a studio recording,
Surviving Death, and a live CD, Alive Why?. Disc 1:
Surviving Death is
Larval’s
newest studio recording, is one of the most diverse Larval
CD to date. Disc 2: Alive Why?, documents
Larval’s
legendary live show. The CD contains live recordings
made between 1999 and 2006 at four different concerts,
including a 2006 gig at the Ferndale, Michigan club,
Xhedos; a 2002 show at Ann Arbor’s Kerrytown Concert
House; and concerts in 1999 and 2001 at Cleveland, Ohio’s
Beachland Ballroom. It features performances by
Brovold,
Gregg Courtney, and Toby Summerfield on guitar; Thor

Latartara
discusses Penetrations: Sonic Explorations in Sexuality

is asked who he is listening to right now. He says, "Well,
I really like Wu Tang Clan, those guys kill me. And then
there's this guy named Bob Log, you
ever heard of him? He's this little kid -- nobody ever
knows how old he is -- wears a motorcycle helmet and he
has a microphone inside of it and he puts the glass over
the front so you can't see his face, and plays slide
guitar. It's just the loudest strangest stuff you've ever
heard. You don't understand one word he's saying. I like
people who glue macaroni on to a piece of cardboard and
paint it gold. That's what I aspire to basically." In this
