DEAD WESTERN is the soundtrack to your fever dreams. Songs that sound like they have been here for hundred years, music you can hide within and brave the world outside. And you might need to climb in a wooden horse to get to the heart of this DEAD WESTERN...




Cartoon Justice started during the dark years of the G. W. Bush Administration as the 'Political Wing' of the ambient noise duo Theory Garden.
With an initial focus on doing political instrumentals, Cartoon Justice has expanded into a fluid set of players taking on both free improv, ambient post-industrial noisescapes and dark psychedelic folk-rock and post-rock songs.
Their improv draws on a background of the ethnic sounds of arctic/nordic/siberian peoples, arab north african and sub-saharan african popular music, and the free psychedelic-jazz-rock-funk vocabulary of the 1970s free fusion experiments of Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, and Sun Ra.
