Over the course of their seven-year run back in the '00s, These Arms Are Snakes covered a lot ofterritory, both in terms of actual miles spent on the road and in terms of their creative bandwidth.Though the band was often mistaken for a typical non sequitur-named screamo outt or another"animal" indie band, the Seattle group quickly deed expectations and garnered a reputation forsubverting the popular underground sounds of time. The group cultivated a small but fervent fanbaseacross multiple continents with their signature combination of synth-infused noise rock, bad-trippsychedelia, amboyant proto-metal boogie, and unhinged basement-show hardcore beforeimploding at the end of 2009. And while These Arms Are Snakes' full-length albums remain ttingtestaments to the band's frantic urgency and stylistic uidity, there is a treasure trove of deep cutsburied on b-sides and split releases that further reinforce their position as one of the weirdest andwildest acts of the decade. For the rst time, those rarities and one-offs have been compiled into acohesive overview of These Arms Are Snakes' lifespan on the double LP Duct Tape & Shivering Crows.
