NURSE WITH WOUND and Dirter Promotions presents three sides of different mixes to 2008's Huffin' Rag Blues CD, One side with a great STEVEN STAPLETON etching in dirty, dark, opaque blue vinyl. Another spectacular torrent of Dadaist experimental exotica from Steven Stapleton and ANDREW LILES, with a suitably scattershot list of contributors and collaborators, including repeat offender COLIN POTTER (credited with "testicular randomization") and a host of "proper" musicians and vocalists prepared to undergo the NWW treatment. As with the companion release to this album, The Bacteria Magnet, Nurse With Wound are currently set on a creative trajectory that dismantles the auditory iconography of the '50s, marauding through eerie re-renderings of jazz club instrumentals, electroacoustic traffic sounds and skewed torch songs. As NWW albums go, this is probably among the more outwardly approachable releases, but in fact, it's the very proximity to the language of pop music that makes Huffin' Rag Blues all the more subversive.
