Paisley Montage is a compilation album by Purling Hiss, released independently in 2011. [1] Before being re-issued by Richie Records in 2013, it was distributed on Compact Cassette by the band during their 2011 tour. In his review for Pitchfork Media, Marc Masters said the album "indulges nicely in Polizze’s preferred tropes-- heavy guitar and a simple, lurching beat-- but eventually descends into an aural madness of searing distortion, echoing voices, and dislocated finger snaps." [2]

Purling Hiss is the rock music project of American multi-instrumentalist Mike Polizze. Based in Philadelphia, the project was named so because of its heavy use of distortion and white noise. Originally conceived for his own personal amusement and desire to experiment, Polizze eventually self-released Purling Hiss (2009) and began touring with a live band.
