This Cardiff-basedinstrumental guitar band has got the Twisted Village Sound down pat: vaguelylo-fi drone rock with the effects pedals turned up to 'DISTORT LOUDLY'. Thisis a MEGA debut, like Mogwai could be if they weren't such shy nonces: SonicYouth completely divested of all things Zorn'.Gideon Dwight, Careless TalkCosts Lives magazine.Listen to the Mountain Men Anonymous brilliant live session on Radio 1 Waleshttp://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/alt/wal...ntain_men.shtmland check out their website at www.mountainmenanonymous.freeserve.co.ukYESSA DE PASO hail from Carnoustie, just beside Dundee.
