This volume is as much a testament to Psychic Ills' effort to push their sound forward through new eyes and ears as it is their interest linking the lineage of the artists involved. The record reads like a family tree, its roots firmly planted in psychedelic German soils, the trunk a techno pillar, and branches tangled in the experimental ether.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost a year in the making, FRKWYS Vol. 4 is a detailed document of like-minded communication from afar and close. Psychic Ills first initiated contact with \u003cb\u003eHans-Joachim Irmler\u003c\/b\u003e, founding member of German kraut-fathers \u003cb\u003eFaust\u003c\/b\u003e, who delivers a primal \/ industrial strength double take on \"Witchcraft Breaker\" from \u003ci\u003eDins\u003c\/i\u003e, the band's first full length. Detroit techno progenitor \u003cb\u003eJuan Atkins\u003c\/b\u003e was contacted on an unlikely whim and immediately responded to \"Mantis\", from Ills' second album \u003ci\u003eMirror Eye\u003c\/i\u003e, with a boiler room deep mix that whumps to a soulful bass line and scans 180 phase fields. Psychic Ills tour companion \u003cb\u003eGibby Haynes\u003c\/b\u003e of \u003cb\u003eButthole Surfers\u003c\/b\u003e grips \"I Take You As My Wife Again\", another track from \u003ci\u003eMirror Eye\u003c\/i\u003e, and hypnotically oscillates it into dark dimensions of synthesized rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume of FRKWYS is limited to \u003cb\u003e550 vinyl copies\u003c\/b\u003e, packaged in thick black jackets with a two color adhesive wrap. \u003cb\u003e50 subscriber copies\u003c\/b\u003e come in leatherette jackets.
