Review from Wire Magazine (March 2010):
"New York’s Charlie Looker presents a personal vision as bewildering as his resumé (Glenn Branca, William Parker) is impressive. Made Flesh offers a contemporary form of urban Prog, drawing as much on the symphonic clang of Branca and Chatham as the brooding chamber rock of Magma and Univers Zero. The crashing rhythms which introduce “Voluptuous Life” set the tone for a work which finds Looker unafraid to plumb ludicrous depths in pursuit of his muse, occasionally displaying a kinship with Xiu Xiu’s Jamie Stewart in terms of unapologetic self-absorption. His affected nerd-squawk vocals are at times irritating but in truth everything here grates, and admirably so."
