Black Pus is the solo project of Lightning Bolt's Brian Chippendale. The project began in 2005 as a home-recording experiment, Chippendale layering his frenetic drum style with multi-tracks of free jazz saxophone, which resulted in a series of CD-R releases beginning in early 2006. By 2011, Chippendale had refined his approach and dropped the jazz-based instrumentation, opting to complement his bombastic drumming and garbled vocal style with drum-mounted electronics that produced dark and noisy frequencies. Primordial Pus employed this new sound and was released in 2011 on Load Records. All My Relations was released on Thrill Jockey in 2013. ~ Fred Thomas
