Arthur Doyle Edward Perraud Dan Warburton - The Basement Tapes

2012-01-24T08:12:00.000-08:00

Arthur Doyle was born on the 26th June 1944 in Birmingham, Alabama. Moving to Nashville to study at Tennessee State, he played jazz with ex-Sun Ra band member Walter Miller and rhythm and blues with David ‘Fathead’ Newman, Donny Hathaway and Gladys Knight. Shortly after arriving in New York in 1967, he discovered the extraordinarily gritty sound produced by singing and blowing into the horn at the same time and was soon in demand as a free player, sitting in with Sun Ra’s Arkestra at Slug’s Saloon on several occasions. In Paris during the 1980s he spent five years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit 'The Basement Tapes' was recorded in Paris during the summer of 2002 with Edward Perraud & Dan Warburton, which was later released in 2003 on the Durtro Label run by David Tibet of Current 93.

Music-sharing blogs are all in crisis as i type this after the weekend's megaupload debacle.

For the time being i've returned to using Mediafire. Most of the posts on this blog are still active, the older ones with links to Mediafire are all fine (leave a message on any posts that are down & i'll re/up the links as soon as). More recent posts, where i've used Multiupload// both the Deposit Files and z-Share links are still active.

I'll continue sharing the out-of-print albums in my own collection for as long as possible, so keep on keeping on!!! DH xx

Boasti - A Body Forever EP (WOW) 1994

2012-01-10T05:57:00.002-08:00

Lincoln based Boasti relocated to London in the early 90s and put out two great extended EPs on welsh label Words Of Warning after tours with label mates Dubwar, Senser and Chumbawamba. A Body Forever was the first of these eps, an interesting mix of dayglo dance beats & hardcore. i think the band split sometime in the mid 90's.

Daevid Allen with Hugh Hopper & Pip Pyle – Brainville Live In The UK

2011-12-30T05:56:00.000-08:00

Released in 2004 as number 2 of the limited "Bananamoon Obscura" series & mixed by Hugh Hopper. The band started out as a quartet with Kramer on keyboards/producer & released the Children's Crusade album on Shimmy Disc in 1998. Brainville Live In The UK takes in everything from psychedelia, progrock & avant improvisation as you'd expect from founding members of Soft Machine, Gong, Henry Cow, Art Bears and apparently the name of the group was inspired by a Sun Ra tune.

J Church – Society Is A Carnivorous Flower

2011-11-30T04:13:00.000-08:00

Lance Hahn, the singer-songwriter and driving force behind the band J Church, but also Lance Hahn the punk historian, Lance Hahn the San Franciscan, Lance Hahn the Situationist, Lance Hahn the Asian-American. This is the sixth J Church album and the first to feature a four-piece band line-up who deliver their tightest, fastest, and loudest record to date. The album title is taken from graffiti that appeared during the workers' and students' strikes/protests in Paris in May 1968. The 15 minutes long title track is about the events of Paris '68 and is in part a tribute to the Subhumans' epic ''Cradle To The Grave'' album, technically one long song split into many smaller, distinctive components.

Fuzz against Junk formed in Summer 2002 with early gigs that included playing All Tomorrows Parties with legendary ex-Can vocalist Damo Suzuki and gigs with Oneida, Circle and Comets On Fire. The Bristol bands debut album was released on Geoff Barrow’s Invada label in 2004 and was mostly recorded in a day ‘live’at The Cube Cinema (just off Stokes Croft in Bristol) during an explosion of collective improvisation, taking influences from Fahey to Sun Ra then melting them into a psych-distortion Sunburned Hand groove, Beefheartian growl, psychedlik ffunk and ffuzzed-out freak-rock.

Poisoned Electrick Head – The Big Eye Am

2011-09-27T08:31:00.000-07:00

The third full-length release from Poisoned Electrick Head sees the band progressing nicely with their oddball progpunkpsych stylings. A lot more synthesizers involved in the songs this time around, the main function of which is to provide memorable tunes between the odd time-changes and bizarre riffs which come across as a mad mixture of Hawkwind, The Cardiacs, Snakefinger and The Residents. If you happened to enjoy the first album then you'll love this one.

Zuvuya - Shamania

2011-07-17T09:56:00.000-07:00

Zuvuya have their roots in Webcore, who released three cassettes, two LP's and 12's on Jungle in the late 80s, and Tribal Drift, who also put out a 12" on Nation. Shamania's diverse material dates from 1991 when Zuvuya got together with Psychedelic guru Terence McKenna on his first visit to the Uk.
Following the "Shaman I Am" 12", Zuvuya's second album launches into tribal trance that skims on the edge of McKenna's far out universe. Their brand of minimal beats/electronica taps on the thin walls of the psychedelic experience with pounding rhythms and ambient landscapes of sound vibrating with ancient images and echoes from the primal swamps, forests and depths of the unknown.

Antifamily are a london based collective of 15 musicians, their debut album was improvised straight to hard drive in London & Munich between 2004-6 & released on the Difficult Fun label in 2006. Antifamily turn these spontaneous improvisations into exuberant scratchy post punk, antagonistic avant-pop songs, delicate post- garage frug & hypnotic electro-dub/mutant disco. It's hard not to think of Essential Logic/ESG/ The Ex with Korg MS10s/Stereolab jamming with Slap Happy when listening to this excellent album. enjoy!!

On this debut self titled EP the Tame Impala sound is equally informed by The Beatles as it is beat poetry, Turkish prog as it is by Turkish delight, English folk as much as homeless folk, a breathe of fresh air that reeks of all of these at times and none at others. Psychedelic acid folk-groove intended for moving your body to or keeping still and observing other forms of movement.

The Pama label was a London-based operation in the late 60s who cut and licensed some of the finest funk, soul, rocksteady & boss reggae tunes coming out of Jamaica and England! These killer comps have been a regular soundtrack to hundreds of soul and bluebeat parties over the years, originally released as two vinyl LPs overflowing with crucial pama 7''s that you'd have an expensive time finding. This CD issue contains all the tracks from the two vinyl volumes, plus 3 bonus tracks.

2011-06-06T06:21:00.000-07:00

I first heard CHAOS UK when they played with fellow bristolians Amebix in 83/4, Short Sharp Shock was their second long player (released1984) & manages to capture their urgent misshapen fuzzed out live sound, a sound that would be given the hardcore tag in the mid eighties. Although nowhere near as challenging as the No Sanctuary 12'' from Amebix, it still stands up as a canny essential hardcore album. Enjoy!!

2011-05-23T08:19:00.000-07:00

In the late 80s, Jeff Tarlton fronted a fantastic psych/punk band called Viv Akauldren & on this second solo album, released on Delerium records in 2000, he sounds even more like a cosmic Gram Parsons. With a host of friends he's created a beautifully haunting stripped down acid folk album, mapping the borderland between gritty urban sprawl and dank mysterious wilderness. Anyone who loved the intensity of Nick Drake, Kevin Coyne or Robyn Hitchcock will find plenty to enjoy. ''In twenty years this album will be worshipped !''

Talisman - Dole Age

2011-05-17T12:49:00.000-07:00

Originally formed in 1977 as Revelation Rockers, a name they soon changed, by the early 1980s, Talisman were consummate performers not only vying with Black Roots for the title of Bristol's number one reggae act, but also one of the country's most popular live bands. They toured the UK with Steel Pulse, The Clash, Black Roots and Misty In Roots building up a loyal following and leaving memories of gigs that are still discussed to this day.
Despite their undisputed talent a major record deal never materialised and until now the only way to hear Talisman has been to track down their two difficult to find singles from 1981, or their two later LPs, "Takin' The Strain" from 1984 and "Jam Rock" From 1990. Now after nearly thirty years Bristol Archive Records have lovingly compiled a CD of the band at their peak in 1981. Not only does the CD contain the band's two original 7" singles, but also seven carefully selected live cuts from classic shows at Glastonbury and Bath University.

Being a reggae release vinyl hasn't been forgotten. The limited edition LP is effectively a completely different release featuring the full extended 12" mixes of both singles in their entirety as well as the previously unreleased "Nitty Gritty".

Alan Moore, David J, and Tim Perkins - The birth caul (A shamanism of childhood)

2011-05-10T07:54:00.000-07:00

The trio's second performance took place at an Old County Court in Newcastle, on November 18, 1995 & was released on Charrm, the label run by :zoviet*france:
This lengthy autobiographical poem of working-class life is compelling and often breathtaking, accompanied by especially haunting soundscapes from David J. and Tim Perkins. Moore doesn't just read these compositions; he performs them, his text treats the caul as a map of humanity.With it, he examines the connections between language, identity and our perceptions of the world, regressing from early adulthood through adolescence, childhood and infancy to prenatal existence, in a quest for a primitive consciousness existing before language.

Japanese space-noise rock trio Green Milk From The Planet Orange broke up some years ago, He's Crying Look was originally released on Beta-lactam Ring in 2004 and combines frenzied garage punk with post-prog freak outs. While loosely played, it is steady & deliberate, with an eastern flavouring that reminds me a lot of early Kraut Rock with their extended excursions toward psychedelic improv. Enjoy!!

OK!!! so i've done my usual trawl of the web and found very little about Freedom AKA, they formed in salisbury, wiltshire in the late 80/early 90s & could be found playing alongside the likes of RDF, Rhythmites, A.O.S.3, Zion Train, Citizen Fish, Dub the Earth,Tofu Love Frogs, etc. Ceasefire was the first release for Dreadhead in 1996, an album full of melodica/organ driven festie reggae/digidub.

Waxed Apple - Six Song EP (Re-up)

2011-05-05T08:27:00.000-07:00

Although from the West Country originally, the band actually met a few years back whilst working in a recording studio in Brighton. First gigs came via the local electronic music collective Spirit of Gravity, whose founding members include Spazz junglists Shitmat and Same Actor. The basis of early live shows was experimentation and improvisation,which has evolved into a powerful bass heavy groove. A groove that is now cut together with organic and electronic sounds, utilising eclectic samples, live drums, tin whistle, strummed and bowed violin, while Caleb’s shouting into a megaphone.

Lee Perry - The Complete UK Upsetter Singles. Volume Three

2011-05-03T11:15:00.000-07:00

A fantasic collection of all of the 7" singles that were released on the Upsetter UK label between 1969 and 1973. Volume 3 rolls out even more great tunes, this time combining esoteric tracks like the sublime "Big John Wayne" by Val Bennett & The Upsetters, ''Suspicious Minds'' by Hortense Ellis or Glen Adams "Never Had A Dream Come True" alongside the perry productions of well known songs by Bob Marley, "Small Axe" and "Kaya". For me the highlights include ''Tight Spot'' by Dave Barker & The Upsetters, The Wailers' haunting version of "Mr. Brown", ''Confusion'' by The Untouchables "Shocks 71" by Dave Barker and Charlie Ace is a fun DJ version on the "Small Axe" rhythm and the beautiful ''Run Up Your Mouth'' by Stranger Cole. Most of these tracks can't be found anywhere else and as with the other sets in the series, highly recommended.

Dog Faced Hermans were a five-piece band whose style could be described as anarcho-punk incorporating folk and noise influences as well as unorthodox instrumentation. Formed in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1986... they eventually relocated to Amsterdam after a close association with the Ex resulted in a joint tour of Europe, a split cassette and "Stonestamper's Song," a tremendous collaborative single recorded under the name Ex Faced Hermans.

Soft Boys - 1976-81 (Re-up)

2011-04-11T09:16:00.000-07:00

One of the punk era's most unjustly ignored bands. Dreamy and complex at a time when aggressive and stripped down were the norm, the Soft Boys presented an alternative before that term became a marketing strategy. This is a 38-song tour through the brief and furious life of the Soft Boys. The songs here, penned by frontman Robyn Hitchcock, bear the traits and quirks Hitchcock continued to explore throughout his hefty subsequent output. The set includes early demos for their full-length debut A Can Of Bees, live performances and selected tracks from all of their official releases.

Dead Kennedys - Live In London, 4th Of July 1982

2011-04-01T06:47:00.000-07:00

DKs need little introduction, they opened up the more interesting side of american hardcore for me and released some seminal albums via their own alternative tentacles label. Dead Kennedys’ songs mix the deliberately shocking lyrics of punk with a humorous, acerbic, satirical, and sarcastic left-wing commentary on current social and political issues. This boot was originally released as 'Off The Rails In Phnom Penh( Limited To 300 copies on red vinyl. Soundboard recording.)' and no doubt reissued a number of times on cd, this copy on slut records.

Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians - Perspex Island

2011-03-30T11:47:00.000-07:00

One of the most original minds to emerge from the late 70 post punk scene with some of the most delightful sensory and intellectually satisfying experiences imaginable. Robyn Hitchcock is a font of exhilarating and inspirational melodies that thrill and excite and the source of a seemingly endless stream of magical words that simultaneously evoke and populate a glorious landscape filled with images that effortlessly range from the familiar to the surreal. His songs always astonish and charm. His voice is assured and compelling. He is a gifted musician that attracts equally skilled musical accomplices who collaborate to produce priceless gems such as this one.

Doc Wör Mirran - Guitarred And Feathered

2011-03-24T12:33:00.000-07:00

DWM projects began when Bernard H. Worrick and Joseph B. Raimond moved to Nürnberg Germany in 1985, with an open membership band philosophy from the start (Jello Biafra featured on a few LPs) meant that each release was different to the last and blurred the boundaries between genres, Lofi Funk, jazz -core, Ambient Experimental, spoken word craziness.. and members also wrapped every release with unique and handmade covers. DWN were also extremely active in the 80s cassette culture and mail art scene, Guitarred And Feathered was their 100th release & features Joseph B. Raimond, Ralf Lexis, Adrian Gormley, Frank Abendroth, Laurent Gabiot, Jeandra Raimond, & just oozzzes lovely avant-kraut sound(e)scapes. Released in 2008 on their own MissmanagemenT label within MT Undertainment devoted exclusively to the recordings, literature and artwork by DWM and its various members.

THE ASTRONAUTS - Peter Pan Hits the Suburbs OUT NOW Reissue on Vinyl LP

2011-03-18T08:59:00.000-07:00

THE ASTRONAUTS - Peter Pan Hits the Suburbs LP

Reissue of this long lost masterpice from 1981 originally released by Bulge / Genius records. The Astronauts were (and are, after close to 30 years and a history of lineup shifts only bested by The Fall) the definitive psych-punk ensemble, though even that title doesn't do 'em justice. Their sound culminates the post '77 punk dabblings of head forbears Twink (his 'Do it 77' single and The Rings' 'I wanna be free' platter), Nik Turner (the outstanding Inner City Unit and the 'punkier' late 70's bits of Hawkwind plays on this seminal album) and Daevid Allen's planet Gong with fellow acid-punkers Here and Now all woven in with an earlier Robert Wyatt / mellow candle-y psych folk vibe... While not sounding like any of those things at all. Get it? The album's range is gigantic: from dissonant punk a la Fall ('Everything stops for baby'), to epic progressive folk ('Protest song', 'Baby sings folk songs'), ditties ('Sod us'), hard-rock ('The Traveller'), pop ('How green was my valley'), garage / surf ('Still Talking'), industrial ('How long is a piece of string'), and set to arrangements that employ synths, flute, saxophone, and strays into progressive or even free-form / psychedelic sections. The icing on the cake is the mature statement of the lyrics, a cynical and bitter exploration of the lives of simple men, miles away from the generic horror / punk overtones that permeated most of alternative albums at the time. As a bonus from the original press this reissue includes a lyric sheet.

It's been awhile since i posted anything by Daevid Allen or Gong related, so here's a double CD of live acoustic gigs with Didier, Gilli Smyth and an all female band that features a number of new songs that would later appear on albums by Gongmaison, Magic Brothers & Mother Gong. Some of the recordings were originally released on the long deleted GAS tape 'Live Spring '88' and recorded at the Old Tabernacle off Portobello Road in London and in Toulon, France, which was also Daevid's first encounter with Didier Malherbe (Bloomdido Bad de Grasse) since the heady Gong days of '74/'75. The gigs were amongst the first that Daevid Allen played in the UK following his return from an eight year spell at home in Australia.

The third album from Poisoned Electrick Head(also known amongst their fans as the Lecky 'eads), features more of their intoxicating blend of quirky psychedelic-punk and rhythmic gymnastics that has earned them a massive underground following. Poisoned Electrick Head have followed their own maverick course, neither collapsing under the weight of media attention nor atrophying from it's neglect. If you're a fan of 'Bendy Pronk' bands like The Cardiacs, Snakefinger, Punilux and Funzig you'll simply love this , a new album I Want To Be Where The Power Is has just been released & PEH will be out playing the massive Wreck N Roll Circus Mad March Tour 2011 (alongside Skip 'Little Axe' McDonald, Here & Now, Eat Static, Spanner, Headjam, Tribazik & more)

Terminal Cheesecake - Angels in Pigtails / Oily Hot Knife 7''

2011-03-08T06:45:00.000-08:00

This one was inspired by Roy over at Rocket Remnants who's recently posted a whole bunch of TC releases. Angels in Pigtails was their third full length album released on Pathological (a label run by Kevin Martin aka GOD, The bug,Techno Animal, King Midas Sound) in 1989, although less dub infused than their later releases, it's still a sonic blast from a band who appeared to eat LSD for breakfast and whose sound was a mesmeric riff-filled psychedelic stew( includes a wonderfully twisted cover of The Residents 'Hello Skinny'). Oily Hot Knife was released on Jackass in 1994 and sounds a lot closer to their startling dub side project Bud Alzir. enjoy!!

The Ullulators - Banging Bones (better days) 1995

2011-02-23T08:16:00.001-08:00

The Ullulators were one of the bands that emerged during the early 80s uk free festival/squat scene, and along with the Oroonies, Omnia Opera,Webcore, Treatment, Magic Mushroom Band, Mandragora, Nukli and Ozric Tentacles created a loose underground family/network. Formed in 1985, as a side project of Gavin Griffiths of Ozric Tentacles, many of the band members also played in The Thunderdogs, house band for Circus Archaos.

Banging Bones was their sixth cassette album released via Better Days Distro & sold at gigs. Their music was always more diverse, mixing heavy spacey dub, trippy psychedelic funk, feverish cosmic freakouts and lysergic soundscapes... these tapes (‘Beyond The Gates Of Ull’, ‘Share A Clam with the Ullulators’ ‘Monads of Mangonia’, 'Yet Nam-Lai ') were heavily influenced by dub reggae & eastern melodies but still had a strong spacerock flavor to them. Their debut vinyl album, "Flaming Chaos" was released by Demi Monde in 1989 which increased an already growing cult following. Contrary to other accounts, The Ullulators played for many years after their surpposed demise, playing free festivals in the southwest every summer.

Parliament, Funkadelic & P-Funk All Stars - Dope Dogs

2011-02-23T05:43:00.000-08:00

Dr. Funkenstein, Bootsy, Starchild, and the rest of the all stars return for George Clinton's most focused album of the '90s. For me it's also one of his best albums & slams a barrage of P-Funk down your throat without even giving you the opportunity to swallow. It feels like a live jam, whether it's the psychedelic funk freak-outs or the more laid back soul-funk numbers, and the Spearhead style hip hop is simply perfect for a concept album about dogs, the government and drugs, and how they're tied together in one huge nationwide conspiracy.

Greg Ginn - Dick

2011-02-20T06:19:00.000-08:00

Ginn's jangly defiance has never been assimilated. Dick was released in 1993 by cruz records & stakes much of the same sonic turf: murky vocals, spluttering guitars, and battering rhythms that naturally recall Ginn's former pioneering band, Black Flag. However, Dick giddily mixes improvisation incorporating terse outbursts of growled vocal, scattershot blues-punk and fuzzed-out funk. Greg Ginn has recently returned to recording, with new releases on SST by Gone and Mojack, along with his new bands, Jambang & Greg Ginn and the Taylor Texas Corrugators.

Storm And Stress - Under Thunder and Fluorescent Lights (re-up)

2011-02-20T05:45:00.000-08:00

Storm And Stress are stepping out and deconstructing what a guitar, bass and drums are capable of. Ian Williams of the disciplined prog-heavy outfit Don Caballero takes complex math-rock song structures apart and puts them back together with mismatched parts and missing screws. Beefheartian free-jazz drums fall down stairs. Guitars are plucked and strangled. Tentative vocals mumbling absurd William Burroughs cut-up lyrics. The bass eschews its traditional role of rhythm keeper and merely calms the proceedings with tones and colors. The album is more quiet than noisy, and could almost be relaxing if it weren't for the unsettling feeling it provokes, as if you are suffering from heatstroke and hallucinations in the desert.

The sound of this mini-album is about as gentle as '90s experimental rock gets, and not without its pleasing riffs here and there. But the non-linear lyrics, odd electronic buzzes, and mild guitar dissonances effectively prohibit this from being viewed as a sellout of any sort. It's music for open-minded fans who don't necessarily want to be assaulted while they free-associate!! Released by Drag City in 1995 on 12''/CD, Red Krayola on this occasion were consuelo & meme, tricia donnelly, john elder, david grubbs, george hurley, margo leavin, steve linn, sharon lockhart, john mcentire, albert oehlen, jim o'rourke, stephen prina, franz schnaas, alex slade, margo leavin, mayo thompson, tom watson, christopher williams, rachel williams, steven wong.

Here & Now - Ufoasis

2011-01-31T12:55:00.000-08:00

This album only touches on the deep history of this influential band. Although they were never household names they played a major part in the UK underground in the late 70s early 80s, including providing lighting and PA for the Stonehenge festival from ’77 to ’84, and formed the back bone of Daevid Allen’s Planet Gong. After about 1985 they faded into the background for a while, until reappearing in 1995 to blow everyone away with ‘UFOasis’ album, featuring some stunningly tripped out space explorations & stunning reworkings of both Tellysong & Secrets. Here & Now will be out playing the massive Wreck N Roll Circus Mad March Tour 2011 (alongside Skip 'Little Axe' McDonald, Eat Static, Spanner, Headjam, Tribazik & more)

Mick Magic become a central figure in the world underground cassette scene from the sleepy town of Frimley, south of London. Banging out space rock with his band, Magic Moments At Twilight Time, championing underground bands with his zine, The Mattrix, distributing and releasing tapes with his Music And Elsewhere label ( which later morphed into the United World Underground ), and basically working night and day (when not driving a cab) on underground music activities.

''it was only the first epiphany of many as time revealed that global underground to be far greater than the sum of its parts, probably even more so than any of us ever realised. You think about it; we were all communicating with bands and like-minded souls from the four corners of our world'' don campau

Pharaoh Overlord - #3

2011-01-27T12:49:00.000-08:00

Finland's Pharaoh Overlord have distilled thirty years of rock music into a slow, blistering, bubbling, psychedelic ooze. This is the third studio album from the acclaimed three piece of Janne, Jussi & Tomi (aka Circle). Musically it's a lot more trippy and psychelic than Circle,though the hypnotic riffs are still evident and to the fore. Pretty much a perfect cross between the spellbinding experimental freak outs of CAN and the heavy riff drone of Sabbath. Enjoy

Thunderdogs - Thundermental (Doctor Dog) 1991

2011-01-21T04:35:00.000-08:00

Taking their name from a 70s cartoon strip by Hunt Emerson (who also did the album cover), the band first released the 3 track "Just after sunrise" 12" EP, which was quickly followed up by 'Thundermental', both released on Doctor Dog in 1991. Thunderdogs, who included members of Webcore, The Ullulators & Ozric Tentacles went on to become the house band for the french circus troupe Archaos in the early 1990s. This remains one of my favorite albums of the time, dubby spacefunk that was also politically challenging, this was the band who bridged the gap between the Seventies and Nineties festival scenes...

Cassette Boy - The Parker Tapes

2011-01-08T04:37:00.000-08:00

Cassette Boy dust's off his C-90's to release this behemoth career round up totalling 98 track's in 74 mins. A monstrous, mad ride through surreal cut-up's (W.S. Burrough's on laughing gas), genius piss-take musical interlude's, political bruising, what-the-hell plunderphonics. Think Victor-Lewis-Smith- Aphex-Twin-Stock-Hausen- and-Walkman-Chris-Morris-John-Oswald- People-Like-Us, all mashed up beautifully... utilising what must be 1000+ samples. Check the classic underground Jamie Oliver cut-up, 'The Drugs Do Work' Miraculously each track somehow relates to the last and unlike most albums of this ilk it bears repeat plays, time after time after time after time after time after time after...

Sons of Selina - Fire in the Hole ( Delerium records)1999

2011-01-07T06:22:00.001-08:00

Psychedelic-punks the Sons of Selina were the spawn of Neil Crud and assorted misfits, who formed the band in North Wales during 1990. Fire in the Hole was the second studio album for Delerium, although by this time they had already put out several cassettes on the legendary D-I-Y label Music & Elsewhere plus a clutch of self released 7''s. Imagine New Model Army meets Hawkwind/Poisoned Electrick Head style acidpunk freakouts.

Justin Sullivan/Dave Blomberg - Big Guitars in Little Europe

2011-01-06T04:42:00.000-08:00

When Justin Sullivan decided it was time for a break from NMA. He embarked on a tour of Europe with Dave Blomberg, playing small venues in Sweden and Holland in 1994, using just two guitars. Along the way, they recorded this live acoustic album and after their European tour, Dave Blomberg became a permanent band member of New Model Army. Everything you love about Justin Sullivan's work laid bare, right down to the basic bones of a song.

Far out mix from up-and-coming Bristolian dubstep producer welds fresh tracks from Gemmy, Guido and himself on this bass crumbling collection for the Highrise Clothing blog (which has recently been taken down, so i thought it more than worth a repost here) and with a bunch of releases this year on Formant, Soul Motive, and Reduction Records, he's definitely a name to look out for.
"When listening to his music, the reason for the hype that is surrounding him becomes instantly apparent; his subtle, yet assured use of melody and harmony, along with his delicate use of percussion, creates a sonic fragility that is full of energy and emotion."
