Reclaimed from a graveyard of vinyl, "The Talking Book" is a collection of oxidized aural snapshots buried between the gloom and the gorgeous. A collaboration between Bill Gould, best known as a founding member of Faith No More, and conceptual sound artists Jared Blum, creater of abstract pop under the moniker "Blanketship", and other releases on his San Francisco based, lo-fi musique concrete label, Gigante Sound.
