It's good to have a window on the world... Well how else are ya' gonna see what a warped, freaked out place it is? On "Deep In The Heart of the Beast in the Sun", Colorfinger provides that window, enlarging and shrinking its scope to view both the whole wide world and the darkest caverns of the soul. "Deep in the Heart of the Beast in the Sun," the debut album from Colorfinger. Filled with the gripping, grinding tension of everyday life, this album is hard music for hard people. With wild cynicism, humor, and incredibly intense imagery, Colorfinger weaves a sonic web of tales of misspent youth, sinister longings, and living and dying in urban California. Describing the album is not an easy task. This is not the kind of music you can wrap up neatly and fit into any single category. From his crazy childhood growing up in the housing projects of Los Angeles, to the drugged out decadence of night clubs and the LA punk scene, Alexakis soaked up a wide variety of ideas and influences ranging from Hank Williams Sr. and John Doe of X, to Sonic Youth and Neil Young. With grinding guitars, soaring harmonies, heavy rhythms and unpredictable twists and turns, the music of Colorfinger is indeed hard to label...but even harder to deny. Listen to "Deep in the Heart of the Beast in the Sun." You won't find anything kind or gentle here. This album is about the hard irony and bizarre comedy of real life, not Hallmark cards.
