Local hero Alex Lukashevsky has long been an artist fave, but his experimental combo Deep Dark United has never really caught on. For starters, he's not exactly big on self-promotion. Heck, we can't even find a picture of his new album on the web! But more likely, it's because for all of their solid albums, the only way to really experience DDU is live. Recorded at Tranzac earlier this year, this 13-song set may be the best case yet for Lukashevsky's work, as his marvelously idiosyncratic songs meet their match in his unhinged performances. Egged on by the gypsy/jazz clamour of his crack band, the man sings like he's in the midst of a fevered dream. Dive in!
