Michael Yonkers has more than four decades of music-making to his credit, but he's best remembered for a single work: the incendiary 1968 LP Microminiature Love. That remarkable album was a menacing slice of home-brewed psychedelia that melded the feedback-drenched pyrotechnics of The Jimi Hendrix Experience with the untutored naivety of the scruffiest teenage garage band. Yonkers’ subsequent releases throughout the ‘60s and ‘70s retained the compelling strangeness of Microminauture Love but lacked some of its youthful aggression. It wasn’t until the late ‘00s, when Yonkers connected with the Minneapolis-based trio The Blind Shake, that he began to recapture some of the coruscating intensity of his groundbreaking debut. With 2012’s Period, Yonkers and The Blind Shake strengthened the musical partnership they'd started three years earlier on their self-titled collaborative debut. Like that record, Period features an aggressive three-guitar lineup, with a highly distorted sound making ample use of Yonkers’ penchant for homemade reverb and echo units, plus oddball electronic effects.
