Quilt :: Agents of Play



"Questing underground into lulling trances"

You’re wandering deep into some catacombs, ossuaries lined with brightly painted skulls, following some faint noise. You don’t know how you got there, but you just have to know what those sounds are and what or who is making them. The deeper you go, the darker it gets, but the louder and more entrancing the chanting and noises become. Just when you think you’re hopelessly lost and the music is the only thing that could possibly be left in the universe and it’s all you will ever really need if you could just find it, a light cracks in from some corner revealing the source: tacos.

Preview :: Quilt - Agents of Play




Jamaica Plainers, Quilt, just released a 7" called Agents of Play on Breakfast of Champs Records. This is the first vinyl release for the band and its a tripped out, hypnotic popgasm. I couldn't even find a band to compare Quilt to if I wanted to. You just have to hear them, its an experience.


Next time you can catch them is June 8th at T.T. The Bear's Place with Pocahaunted.

Hold this at the Breakfast of Champs store.

Breakfast of Champs Records


Syrup slides down the fretboard of a guitar and fills in the crannies of the waffle resting in the acoustic's sound hole. Pancakes are impaled on a high hat, hash browns bounce on a snare drum, and bacon and sausage are lined up along the keys of his synthesizer. Or, at least that's one way of imagining how Breakfast of Champs began.
