POOR SCHOOL - The Holy Master
"POOR SCHOOL started in April 2005 with Bryan Ramirez (gtr), John Niekrasz (drms) and\r\nNathan Hoyme (sax). We first caught wind of this sick noise/jazz/postpunk rock trio when\r\nJohn Olson brought Ramirez other combo Ex-Cocaine (who have a sick new LP on\r\nSiltbreeze out NOW) to the No Fun basement a few years back and Ramirez laid some\r\nPOOR SCHOOL cdr action on us. Needless to say we were buh-lown away by the manic\r\nimprov hepness and immediately emailed the dude to see if we could slam some POOR\r\nSCHOOL magic onto black plastik. And unto Ecstatic Peace was delivered The Holy Master.\r\nRamirez and Olson go waay back when the two of them jammed together in the nascent\r\nMichigan underground psychedelic troupe Universal Indians. Ramirez took off to Missoula,\r\nMontana to investigate micro-brews and mountain air and help put together the awesome\r\nEx-Cocaine. Hes still there. Niekrasz went to get high on life in India but is expected back\r\nsooner than later. Upon his return we can hopefully expect POOR SCHOOL to shed new love and light and chaos for the future.-Ecstatic Peace
