Thinking Fellers Union Local 282
The Funeral Pudding reads like a diary, a byproduct to San Francisco’s sprawling art scene in the late 80s and mid 90s. A composite tapestry of clunking drum beats, shuddering mandolins, and tinkering banjos, the band exudes buzzing, droned-out showers of spontaneity, demonstrating their affinity for improvisation and experimentation.
The TFUL282 discography ranged from full-lengths released by Matador to rare singles on obscure labels shared around by hand. There was a litany of covers and b-sides that were only accessible to listeners through tape trading or Youtube. These Things Remain Unassigned digs deep into the archives to assemble these miscellaneous tracks.
