Ali, Sean: With My Head in the Sand [CASSETTE]
(Wee Space Tapes)

An unusual album of abstracted sound and spoken word, NY bassist Sean Ali's first solo album, using extraneous and unidentifiable sound and punctuation over layered voices of varying quality in a non-linear narrative, a curious album of impressive sonic interest.
