Spirit of Hamlet (Watt / Kawabata / Irving / Johnson) - Northwest of Hamuretto LP

Spirit of Hamlet is a long distance collaboration of four absolute history-making juggernauts: Mike Watt (Minutemen, Firehose, The Stooges), Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple), Scotty Irving (Clang Quartet), and highly-acclaimed songwriter/producer Benjy Johnson. The result is a blend of personalized stamps while taking on its own identity entirely. A masterful fusion of psych, punk, experimental noise and free jazz. SOH is a wild ride of four well-rounded yet distinctive musicians creating something only these four could.
