Gilgongo Records

Butter Knifes is one of several projects from the mind of 13 year old Harrison Hufman, who for the past couple of years has been playing shows around the Phoenix area and releasing a steady stream of oddball bedroom music ranging from Daniel Johnston influenced songs to no wave / atonal outbursts (as heard on this record). Writing and recording his material independently, the Butter Knifes tracks were the result of experimenting with a broken electric guitar and quite literally a couple of butter knives. On the flip side, Soft Shoulder covers Fathers Day, another Phoenix band who for 11 years have released thrash/punk under the guise / various line-ups of fake "dad" characters and happen to also be a Harrison-favorite. The song originally appeared on a compilation consisting of nothing but bands covering the same Fathers Day song. While the original was 30 seconds or so, Soft Shoulder dragged it out for over 5 minutes (confronting absurdity with annoyance and reckless repetition). Edition of 300 on white vinyl.
