Listening to Location Location Location's debut, 'Damaged Goods', and it's easy to visualize the three musicians sweating it out in the recording studio, locking in on a groove and just jamming. With, it should be noted, occasional breaks to contemplate the basics, then add subtle overdubs: some bit-crunched guitar here, a marimba there, perhaps a harmonized line or a spacey reverb effect. But essentially live, essentially just three guys in a room, giving their all. But that's not how it went down at all. Recorded during the darkest days of Covid-19, Damaged Goods is actually the ultimate pandemic project, as the three musicians were socially distant during the recording project. Featuring Messthetics member Anthony Pirog (guitar, guitar synth, synthesizers), Michael Formanek (from Thumbscrew; 4 & 5 string electric and double bass, guitar) and Mike Pride (member of Boredoms, MDC; drums, marimba, bongos, dub).
