Review of the Not Not Fun split 7" from:

http://www.terminal-boredom.com/reviews.html

Raccooo-oo-oone/Sword Heaven - June 06 7
Iowas Raccooo-oo-oone didnt grab me at first, but the nightmarish minimalism of guitar, drum, vocal and effects make an aggressively ambient sound that falls into a primitive warrior throb. Pretty impressive stuff...Even more primitive, more aggressive, and more nightmarish are Ohios Sword Heaven. These guys say they are influenced by Swans and it shows. There is a "Cop"-like bludgeoning going on here, but it is much rawer and more primal than anything by M Gira & Co. Swans sound like they had a very bad day, Sword Heaven seems faced with the apocalypse. A very good slab of dark emotion.(SSR)

thank you gentlemen again for playing Edinboro. It was amazingly brutal and punishing, in the very best way possible. And I get to see Gira next month!!!! see you there???
