How good is Porcella? The Deadly Snakes completely reinvented themselves here, and while there’s less outright garage freakouts the amount of layered, atmospheric compositions makes up for it. You’d suspect they were listing to Rain Dogs quite a bit when recording it. The fact that the band sequestered themselves in an cabin somewhere in northern Ontario to record is just fascinating to me. It seems isolation-based efforts always result in some intense stuff.
Even more interesting is that the double LP version of this (alternatively titled A Bird In The Hand Is Worthless) features an entirely different sequencing and a couple of extra tunes. You don’t often see bands re-arranging their material to fit the medium like that.
