OHM: "Amino Acid Flashback"

Megadeth lead guitarist Chris Poland and OHM: have taken their sophomore record, pushed it over the edge, crushed all walls of conventional fusion and have laid down one of the most brazen, nitro-burning instrumental records you'll ever hear. Producer Peter Sardelich writes about OHM:'s "Amino Acid Flashback", "These guys don't "practice" in the traditional sense. They play for pleasure, because they're compelled. Pag (bassist Robertino Pagliari) often at his house on the couch, CP (guitarist Chris Poland) at Glass House, Kofi (drummer Kofi Baker) in his studio. It will really help the creative process if you're in a studio that is Earth-scorchingly hot. At breaks in rehearsal or recording, Pag smokes outside (less than he used to though) and talks about bass players. CP is usually tweaking guitars or gear, Petar ruminates or actually does kung fu, frequently complaining about the sad state of psychiatry and/or the nation. Usually and. Kofi refuels by way of chicken and rice, talks about drums and how cool girls are. Heat in the studio causes enough sweating to detoxify the body and think more clearly about the writing, recording, and rehearsing processes."
