Foot Village

National language: Drumming
National past-time: Screaming "Of all the weird scum-hunch folk ensembles I've heard over the last few years, Foot Village may be the most chaotic. Created and staffed by members of some LA underground heavies, this is a rather masterful effort, even when things are a little more controlled." - WIRE FOOT VILLAGE are a thunderous drum-n-shout assembly from Los Angeles - a thick forest of whirling limbs beating out rhythms for whispers and hollers to leap and dive through.
