Bitchin Bajas

Bitchin Bajas began as a modest side project from Cooper Crain, the guitarist for Krautrock-obsessed experimentalists Cave. They have since expanded into a much-admired cult-favorite drone band where the players focus on basic tonalities and branch out from there. This self-titled \"double album\" is considered their fifth (though it\'s cassette-only, and tiny vinyl releases muddy the count). “Field Study” dares to turn ambient nature recordings into digitized flurries of sound, while “Brush” pulses with near-urgency that expands and contracts into a hypnotized state. The almost 19 minutes of “Tilang” allow for even greater rewards. Popol Vuh fans unite!

Bitchin Bajas' second, self-titled album finds the experimental trio blending musicial personalities of the past to create their own sonic identity. There are no forced attempts at edginess, even though their simple techniques keep the music loose and live-sounding.

Chicago drone outfit Bitchin Bajas first splintered off of Krautrock revivalists Cave, serving as a more relaxed side project for Cave guitarist Cooper Crain but soon growing into a more realized band over the course of various tape and small-run vinyl releases.
