Christians is an improv project that appears in various configurations led by Vancouver guitarist Jeremy Stewart. S/Z (titled after Roland Barthes' structural analysis of narrative codes) was recorded at Phil Elverum (Mount Eerie)'s dilapidated church studio in Anacortes, WA. This allowed Christians to take on the guise of a classic Pacific Northwest power trio, with Stewart joined by Stanley Jason Zappa on bass and drummer Nick Skrowaczewski (both of whom appeared on last year's Golia / Shiroishi / Sikora / Skrowaczewski / Wedman / Zappa tape HelMel). The trio translates the sonic vocabulary of metal, blues, and punk into the musical language of free improvisation.
