***A Lion is a Lion is the long-awaited 12-inch EP from one half of the founding core lineup of long-running experimentalists/upstarts GROWING. Following up his 2015 release Protest Music, JOE DENARDO's ORNAMENT returns with an EP of expansive soundtracks asking the listener to dream of alternative futures, dystopias, new ways. The title takes it's inspiration from the common Kurdish saying "Şêr şêre çi jine, çi mêre'', a response to questions about the efficacy and equality of revolutionary fighting forces by all genders. We are all equal. We can all fight. Keeping with an instrumentation of guitars and electronics, A Lion is a Lion performs like a mixtape of six investigation zones, digging into sonic territories and finding rather unstable footings. Unique, die-cut LP jackets provide an "interactive" experience for the listener. Strictly limited pressing. Download included.
