“I’d been itching to document an opus — principally an extended, winding, bastard of a track, harking back to a few of the compositions I reduce my tooth (or ears) on, in my music-hungry adolescence. ‘Conspiranoia’ was sprouted from a seed I had planted in my pocket book a yr or so in the past — just a few traces commenting on the psychological state of the up to date world,” famous bassist and singer Les Claypool in an unique interview with Consequence.
