Schismatic

With absolutely no apologies, more Andrew Weatherall, this time with compadre Keith Tenniswood as Two Lone Swordsmen. This is side 1 of a 2001 mixtape, drawing exclusively on the 1998-2001 period, covering the album Tiny Reminders, remix companion Further Reminders, and two mini-albums/EPs, A Bag Of Blue Sparks and A Virus With Shoes. 'Nuff said.
