J. POET REVIEW
BURNING TAMM is the best CD I've heard so far this year, maybe in the last couple of years. The tracks flow smoothly, and the vision — dark, relentless, yet with a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel — is amazing.
Every time I listen, another track pops out at me. I really like the unrhyming (I think) lyrics on "Isaiah," and the "My words will not pass away" conceit on "Luke" is killer. There isn't a weak track on the album, and the Wall of Tamm guitar sound throughout is just fuckin' great.
A lot of good lines. "Talkin' bout a nighty-night" keeps going through my head at present. My current pick hits include "I Can Feel," "Isaiah," "One Good Man," "Show Me How Deeply You Feel" and "The Underground Man." I've been enjoying these favorite tracks one by one, but the set builds cumulative power when you listen to the CD all at once from beginning to end.
BURNING TAMM is a perfect album for today, more timely and timeless than anything I've heard for quite a while.

LETTER FROM BROTHER LASZLO TO THE YAK DOWNLOADERS
Who is the underground man with the kayak tan? And why does his music follow me? Find out for yourself. Reflect on tune and ask yourself how BURNING TAMM can heal you as it has healed this humble brother. For through healing, we learn how to go forth with a musical freedom that is righteous in our eyes. Now hear this: "The letters were his voice...is this a temple, a sacred space." And so The Doktor of the Daves, The Great Raver, has created this new sonic space which speaks volumes, decorated in both literary and biblical shrines. Take the "Train of Dreams" to the north coast station where salvation waits. Break earthly bonds on "I Can Feel." Hear the coyote's song on "Theme from an Imaginary Western." Then the words of "Isaiah," your prophet in his desert calls you to soar with the guitars and feel the voice of power on "I Know You." "Meet Me at the Station" tastes like a psychedelic country buffet of kale with angelfood background and spaghetti western drama. "One Good Man" interplays guitar and voices speaking in tongues. "Luke" speaks the tonal gospel while "Show Me How Deeply You Feel" with a rising sun foundation builds its house of worship frame sweetly with tingly guitar departures for each narrative moment. "I Can Walk on Nails" witnesses the devotion just before "Show Me How Deeply You Feel" and "Job" wrap you up in their drama. But then hold on for the masterpiece, "The Underground Man." BURNING TAMM. Just one raving man. You'll want to hear him again and again. Go forth and listen.
Your Brother in Music,
Laszlo Kominski
