Flying Vipers' sound is of another time and place. Deeply in debt to the original Jamaican engineers of the '70s who turned their mixing consoles into the lead instrument, the Vipers lay down steady drum & bass driven rhythms with jazz tinged melodies and post-punk attitude. Recorded and mixed on a vintage cassette 8-track in a dank basement in Waltham Massachusetts, the songs are manipulated with twists and turns of the console, saturated tape delays and exaggerated EQ until the track becomes something new. Cuttings is the Vipers first full length album, building on the foundation of The Green & Copper Tape EPs while adding more horns, vintage synths, and eccentric effects. The band may have been begrudgingly prophetic when they released the first single "Two Twenties Clash" in February 2020, as shortly after the world turned upside down dealing with the Covid-19 crisis and America struggles with reconciling it's racist foundations. Within it's 12 instrumental tracks, Cuttings is a sonic search for meditation amidst the madness.
