A Ripple Conversation With Stephen Bishop Of Thunder Horse

When I was a kid, growing up in a house with Cat Stevens, Neil Diamond, and Simon and Garfunkel, the first time I ever heard Kiss's "Detroit Rock City," it was a moment of musical epiphany. It was just so vicious, aggressive and mean. It changed the way I listened to music.

Lahar, on the other hand are basically unknown to me, despite countless searches online to find out more. Regardless, what they bring musically is what matters and what they unleash on this cassette/ digital split speaks volumes, much more than any band info would. The title of this split is rather telling and spot on, if you ask me. Peristeria is the genus of plants in the orchid family, and orchids are beautiful while Tephra are rock fragments and particles ejected by volcanic eruptions. In other words, it is created by brute unforgiving force. And that's exactly what this recording is. The eight songs on offer, four from each band, clock i
