Bomis Prendin - two albums
Bill Altice, former musician in the Karen Cooper Complex, alerted me to another band he was playing in around the same time called Bomis Brendin. Originally recording in the 1980s, they are still together as is attested to on their current web site. However their first two albums Test and Phantom Limb can be found lurking free and legally under Creative Commons licensing at the Free Music Archive. Bomis Prendin appears to have been a collective of musicians experimenting under the auspice of the Artifacts/yclept record label in Washington D.C. The ensemble played a form of free rock improvisation that is similar to the music of Fred Frith, Pere Ubu and to a lesser degree, The Residents. Primarily instrumental, there is a real love of sound for sound’s sake in these tracks. There is always something going on to simulate the senses. Just another amazing look at the kind of great musical explorations going on in the outer territories of the 80s.

Fred Fripp? Is he the son of Fred Frith and Robert Fripp?
