Avant-garde guitarist Tom Verlaine (frontman for the proto-punk band Television) and versatile producer-cum-guitarist Jimmy Rip (backup musician for Rod Stewart, Hall & Oates, Willie Nelson and other acts of like magnitude) pool their talents and efforts for this guitar-driven series of original compositions, performed atop several classic experimental short films: Ballet Mecanique, Etoile de Mer, Brumes d'Automne, Rythmus 21, Emak-Bakia, The Life and Death of Pf 9413: A Hollywood Extra and The Fall of the House of Usher. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
