Archival muck documenting Fritz Welch and John Seden trying to extend the secretions. “I met John Seden at art school in Chicago in '87. We bonded instantly on weird art, The Residents, Shockabilly and Herschell Gordon Lewis films. We hung out briefly until i dropped out and moved back to Texas. Soon after, i moved to NYC and he formed Repulse Kava. We hung out whenever possible and collaborated on fucked-up videos, collages and music whenever we got together. 'Can Your Guinea Do The Dog?' was recorded in John's dank and mystical basement in 1995. As always we just plugged in whatever was to hand and folded reality a few times. But on this occasion it included a recording of my girlfriend's deceased guinea pig and john's dog got involved for zoomorphic balance. I listened to a cassette of this jam for years until i realized that it had the strong smelling odor of a Chocolate Monk release cuz it was a meeting of the minds, as well as the pelvis - the guinea was Priscilla, and the dog was Elvis!” -Fritz Welch.
