Elon Katz will release The Human Pet on Diagonal on May 12th.
Portrayed in mutated form on the new LP's cover, Katz has relatively few releases under his given name, but you might have heard him under other guises such as his project for Hippos In Tanks, White Car, or his duo with Beau Wanzer, Streetwalker. As Elon (or E L O N, to be exact), he just issued Concupiscence for the Japanese imprint MIND, but The Human Pet is his most substantial release yet.
The Human Pet comes with relatively little background information. The one-sheet provides the a list of "care instructions" excerpted below:Care Instructions
The human pet is always hungry… the human pet is highly obedient, but also opinionated… the human pet does what it pleases, and is often punished in exchange… the human pet requires open space to avoid neurosis.
