Description/Reviews: 

... a “duet” in this case does not mean a stripped-down arrangement. Far from it, Mike Keneally and Scott Schorr are deploying a wide array of instruments and dubbing them in to create a full combo effect. And a tight combo, at that.
In fact, Keneally’s slap bass in some kind of funked-up syncopation with Schorr’s drums is the most noticeable thing about “Liquid and Fumes,” not Keneally’s still-excellent guitar work. Here, though, you find his penchant for being able to walk the thin line between catchy pop phrases and edgy dissonance. And then Keneally uncorks a succinct and succulently evil guitar solo in the middle of it all, and in the span of less than four minutes you get a pretty good sampling of the immense talent both bring to the table.
