Designed by Stephen Meixner in 1987.
Contrastate, a trio of masked British experimentalists (Jonathan Grieve, Stephen Meixner and Stephen Pomeroy), littered the avant /
home taping networks through the '90s with a beautifully insular, eccentric and at times frightening panoply of sound that was at equal points threatening and soothing. The album titles: "A Live Coal Under The
Ashes," I Am A Clown Collecting
Moments," "A Thousand Badgers In
Labour," "False Fangs For Old
Werewolves," and "Seven Hands Seek Nine
Fingers." Contrastate broke up, but Meixner still makes music as
srmeixner and it's eminently worth seeking out.
