Californian NO BABIES‘ new album SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME on English label UPSET THE RHYTHM is such as if Scottish anarchopunk band Dog Faced Hermans and Japanese experimental chaos hardcore band Melt-Banana would have been made an album together.

—–

5. SARAH SHOOK was born in Rochester, New York. She was homeschooled and grew up in a fundamentalist Christian family where music was restricted. In high school, she taught herself acoustic guitar. Inspired by artists such as the Sex Pistols, Elliott Smith and Hank Williams she started her first country band, Sarah Shook and the Devil in 2010. But now here is her second album with THE DISARMERS on Chicago BLOODSHOT RECORDS.

The album YEARS is about finding a way. A way through exhaustion, depression, betrayal, hangover after hangover, upper after downer after upper, fight after never-ending fight. It’s about picking yourself up and dusting yourself off after years of being trampled and beaten down, jutting your chin out, head high after they’ve done their worst, and shouting: Fuck you! I do want I want!

6. Songs of alienation and anxiety from Kiev by post-punk shoegaze band BICHKRAFT. New album 800 on WHARF CAT RECORDS (US)

„We are standing at the edge of the end of times. The catastrophe is imminent. La peur est partout. Fear is Everywhere.”

7th album ANGST on VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS (CH)

8. For me the most shining pearl of this playlist this wonder and powerful song by Finnish prog rock band SAMMAL from the album SUULIEKKI on SVART RECORDS

GREAT ARTISTS > INDEPENDENT LABELS > BRAND NEW RECORDS

1. Two from The Flying Luttenbachers formed short-lived Chicago no-wave band MY NAME IS RAR-RAR in 2000. Later vocalist of Xerobot joined them. And later their drummer formed XADDAX with post-hardcore math rock band Dazzling Killmen guitarist. MY NAME IS RAR-RAR recorded their first album in 2003 but broke up before mixing it. Now this fuckin funny split 7″ EP brings a pair of newly mixed and mastered tracks from that final recording session together with two new XADDAX songs on SKIN GRAFT RECORDS (US). And this is the premiere of the song „One”

kbctrax11

2. „post punk rock psychedelic now country sometimes disco indie rock and roll”. I take the risk that I wrote this about JAZZ BUTCHER during the listening of their 1989 album BIG PLANET SCARY PLANET from the 4 albums box set reissue series THE VIOLENT YEARS on FIRE RECORDS (UK). But before there were THE WASTED YEARS. Anyway if you want to know more about them you can find more in KILLBONOCLUB 10

3. French SCANERS play punk rock and roll like Ramones, Dickies, Devo, Suicide, Spits, Les Thugs just somewhere between the 4th and 5th dimensions. Debut album very soon album on Dirty Water UK and a bunch of French labels: Adrenalin Fix Music, Casbah Records, Dangerhouse Skylab, Teenage Hate Records, Strychnine Recordz and Trokson Records

scaners

4. Komodina 3 was a Greek band. Everybody knows them but nobody saw them to play. Like the band Ghost Train (or Kummitusjuna) in the film Zombie & The Ghost Train by Finnish director Mika Kaurismaki which is among my favorites. The story of Komodina 3 started n 2005 in Thessaloniki. Some musicians recorded an album, made 80 CD copies, hand-delivered them to some local men of taste. But they didn’t drive to their only show because was too cold out. Seven years after the owner of Slovenly Records heard his CD in a van during the euro tour of his label’s two Greek bands, Bazooka and Gay Anniversary, and he released it. One of them started electro-punk solo career as NOMOS 751. Debut album on SLOVENLY RECORDS (US)

5. French drum duet DEUX BOULES VANILLE triggering analogic synthesizers, making grindcore constructions, techno and dub improvisations. Idiotic music. Danceable. New album PLANET GOUGOU on KYTHIBONG RECORDS soon.

6. For twenty years API UIZ was a polyrhythmic multicolored punky math rock-like trio from Bordeaux. They have influenced an entire generation of French musicians by their ferociously independent way they play and produce “raw, unworked, but structured music” which was the title of their debut album. Since 2015 API UIZ is a quintet. PEPLUM, their first album with the extended line-up released now on 12″ vinyl on Kythibong, Les Potagers Natures, Mon Cul C’est Du Tofu, La République Des Granges, Attila Tralala (Belgium) and Red Wig Records (Germany)

7. LADY BIRD is a movie about a young, rebellious woman living in Sacramento, California and the constraints studying at a Catholic high school. Its soundtrack was composed by JON BRION who can be known from bands like The Excerpts, The Bats, and The Grays or his film scores from eg Magnolia, Punch-Drunk Love, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The Lady Bird soundtrack will be released soon for the first time on vinyl via FIRE SOUNDTRACKS (UK) and LAKESHORE RECORDS (US). It’s a strange big puzzle of different melancholic moods. Anyway Brion is featured as keyboardist and drummer on Marianne Faithfull’s 2003 album, Kissin Time, and co-wrote a song, „City of Quartz”, for her next work, 2005’s Before the Poison.

8. Crazy, chaotic, frantic, but melodic Spanish garage rock and roll band WAU Y LOS ARRRGHS!!! released a sold out in a flash 7″ single on their farewell gig last year. Out again on 2 Feb on SLOVENLY RECORDS!

9. 

hollysinners

The Spanish Sinner bros with Carmelo Tornado formed the punk band HOLLYWOOD SINNERS. Album KHÖME KAKKÄ released now on DIRTY WATER RECORDS. At first I did not like it. I don’t understand why, because during the 3rd listening I found – Hey, this is fucking good! Since I love them.

10. Dirty, filthy rock n roll with a dark sense of humour from New Zealand by THE CAVEMEN. Debut album first time on vinyl with two bonus tracks: „Swamp Thing” + „Juvenile Delinquent” on DIRTY WATER RECORDS (UK)

11. A fresh indie-pop hit song from Sweden with cold by HATER. Red Blinders EP released on FIRE RECORDS

12. RIK & THE PIGS: nothing special just total punk. A CHILD GATOR album on TOTAL PUNK RECORDS (US)

13. Bad dream pop by New Yorker movie maker ALEXEI SISHKIN. New album, on cassette by FORGED ARTIFACTS (US)

14. The hymnic song Still Alive celebrates the present and welcomes the unknown by Scottish indie pop band THE SPOOK SCHOOL, but they are punks just like the Buzzcocks or Joanna Gruesome, but with a transgender with a beautiful moustache, and this is what a simple woman can’t.

COULD IT BE DIFFERENT? album on ALCOPOP (UK) and SLUMBERLAND (US)

15. DRIFT is the seventh full-length by NYC rock polymaths THE MEN. Release soon on SACRED BONES RECORDS. Collaborators: Delicate Steve on guitars, Parker Kindred (Antony & The Johnsons, Jeff Buckley) on drums, and Chris Coady (Beach House) as producer.

16. Nowadays Glasgow based alien-obsessed hyperactive girl KEEL HER plays high standard lo-fi sometimes noisy outsider bedroom pop alone. But with her band! It’s a revelation. Just like the Breeders were in the 90s. I know it. I was there with 28 lucky ones to see them on 22 Dec in Refugee Info Bus Fundraising Party at DIY SPACE FOR LONDON

keelher1

17. MOON DUO worked up a version of ‘Jukebox Babe’ because their sound engineer Larry got it stuck in his head and was singing it all the time. And on the other side of the EP there is No Fun for the the 70th birthday of Iggy Pop. Released on SACRED BONES

18. Psychedelic ambient country band SUSS members have worked in various capacities with Lydia Lunch, the B-52s, Rubber Rodeo, k.d. Lang, David Bowie, John Cale, Wilco, Norah Jones, The War On Drugs, Burt Bacharach, and countless others. Their debut album GHOST BOX is a trip in the mid-western desert. It’s not psychedelic, it’s hallucinogen.

19. I am very surprised. I did not wait for anything special, but this is an exceptionally good album – writing this during the second track of first listening. Who is she: RUBY BOOTS? Scottish and Italian descent Australian-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter inspired by country, blues, and rock. This time her backing band is TEXAS GENTLEMEN who plays „Timeless American Music for fans of The Band, The Swampers, and Willie Nelson.”

Album DON’T TALK ABOUT IT released on BLOODSHOT RECORDS (US)

20. THE GOON MAT AND LORD BENARDO: Adrenaline and alcohol fused primal boogie mayhem from Liege, Belgium. Formerly they played as Stinky Lou and the Goon mat and lord Benardo, but Stinky left the band to open Lou’s Bar. New album TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES on VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS (CH)

21.

“Come on baby let’s rock!
Well, OW! Woo! Ah! Ah!
Aaaah-ooo!”

It has started in Boston in 1983 when punk rock guitarist Peter Greenberg decided to form an instrumental rock and roll band, but Barry White upset his plans when he began unexpectedly singing at the record store where they worked.

Yes, Barry White, who was 11 in 1966 when his uncle took him to see the James Brown Revue and „that was my first witness of a fantastic show. (…) all the girls were screaming and the guys were going AAAHHH!!! It was wild. It was probably the biggest moment of my life – said the frontman Barrence Whitfield who was born as Barry White who after the gospel choir became a drummer, and played funk, soul and prog rock music.

After two albums the original line-up of BARRENCE WHITFIELD & THE SAVAGES disbanded in 1986 because of Greenberg and the bassist moved on, but Barrence rebuilt and kept alive the band until 1994. The three core member reunited in 2010 and now soon here is the new album SOUL FLOWERS OF TITAN. It was inspired by the cosmic outlook of Sun Ra and elaborates on the Cincinnati-based King Records and Federal Records sounds of the 1950s-‘60s.

1. Trip-hop acid folk under jazz attack. On the one hand the story has begun in 1979 when Ágnes Zsigmondi – singer of Hungarian underground folk band Kolinda – illegally left her homeland and went to live in Paris because her band’s music was not suit for the Hungarian one party state standards so they could not published any records while they released albums in France where she met American jazz drummer (of Sam Rivers and Archie Shepp) Stephen McCraven. Their son MAKAYA McRAVEN was born there in 1983 and has become a drummer. His new mixtape album HIGHLY RARE released now. It was recorded „just days after the death sentence of the American presidential election” when INTERNATIONAL ANTHEM RECORDS invited some jazz musicians into a bar in Cihacgo to play in support of sets by Belgian DJ LeFtO

6. BACK TO THE ROOTS OF INDIE POP

„The great liberating album for our generation was London Calling by the Clash. At a time when the post-punk mob seemed to be removing more color, texture, and beauty from their music with every passing week, London Calling was a revelation, taking us back to reggae and soul and everything that was possible” – said Pat Fish

who formed the band JAZZ BUTCHER in Northampton in 1982 when a friend lent him a compilation album of 70s soul hits, he got a vision of a new way forward, and wrote the song “Partytime”, a three-and-a-half-minute repudiation of post-punk’s sonic and verbal tendencies toward deadly seriousness.

They made four albums for Glass Records between 1983 and 1986. The jacket notes on the dusty tome that recalls this period mentions private detective television series Randall And Hopkirk (Deceased), Thatcher, DIY post-punk, LSD, surrealist cabaret, The Velvet Underground, a bottle of Cointreau or two, the Amstrad 7090 and Ronco’s ‘Black Magic’ compilation. These first four were released in a box set as THE WASTED YEARS on FIRE RECORDS this year October. And now here are the four VIOLENT YEARS in a box set that compiles their next four albums, originally released on Creation Records between 1988 and 1991. The song Looking For Lot 49 is taken from their ’88 album Fishcotheque.

In 1995 they retired in protest against Britpop, American actor Chris Evans and their own frustrating inability to unseat the government of John Major. But nowadays they play as the Jazz Butcher Quartet with ace trumpeter Simon Taylor. Next show > March 1st London 100 Club

7. A dizzying mix of pastoral ballads and DIY experimentation by Australian band THIS KIND OF PUNISHMENTA BEARD OF BEES album reissue on SUPERIOR VIADUCT RECORDS (US). Originally self-released in 1984.

—–

8. Italian artist Giovanni Dal Monte aka LA JOVENC from the other side of music. One of his albums “Birds make love with electric ladybugs” initially was imagined as an exhibition of photographs of insects and landscapes and the entire music was composed using samples of insect and bird sounds. But now here is a transposition of an ode from his brand new album MATER on SONATA BOTANICA and ATMOSPHERE RECORDS which contains transcripts of midi scores of renaissance music of Palestrina, De Pres, Ockeghem, Taverner, Encina, Lemlin, etc. It reminds me Laibach’s Bach cover album Kunst der Fuge.

—–

9. Really heavy metal duo THE BODY & very hardcore band FULL OF HELL play smelter ambient music on their collaborative album ASCENDING A MOUNTAIN OF HEAVY LIGHT with some guests like drummer Brian Chippendale (Lightning Bolt, Black Pus) on THRILL JOCKEY RECORDS (US)

10. THE GREEN CHILD is the collaborative project of Mikey Young from Aussie new wave punk Total Control and Raven Mahon from American indie garage rock Grass Widow. The band’s name was inspired by Herbert Read’s 1935 utopian, anarcho-communist sci-fi novel called The Green Child. The story begins in 1861 with the faked death of President Olivero, dictator of the South American Republic of Roncador, who has staged his own assassination. He returns to his native England, to the village where he was born and raised. On the evening of his arrival Olivero notices that the stream running through the village appears to be flowing backwards, and he decides to follow the water upstream to discover the cause. The stream’s course leads Olivero to a mill, where through a lighted window he sees a woman tied to a chair, forced by the miller to drink the blood of a freshly slaughtered lamb. But at this moment we are under of influence of 80s synth pop on a cold, foggy and rainy day when their debut album released on UPSET THE RHYTHM RECORDS (UK)

—–

11. UNDER GRAPE LEAVES is a silent, poetic, melancholic, bucolic and psychedelic album from Canadian artist ANDRE ETHIER ex-guitarist and front man of alternative rock band Deadly Snakes (In The Red Records). It is released on TELEPHONE EXPLOSION

—–

12.  Ghosts of Ravel, Debussy and Gershwin whirling with Billie Holiday, Os Mutantes, Pixies, Yo La Tengo and Beatles on the debut album of Brooklyn based RENATA ZEIGUER, the daughter of Argentinean and Philippine immigrants who learnt music in two worlds: New York and Buenos Aires. Her album OLD GHOST – which will release soon on NORTHERN SPY RECORDS – comes Cibo Matto to my mind.

13. US band WEI ZHONGLE was born from a love of traditional Chinese court music. They play esoteric but chaotic pop music on this base. Funny. THE OPERATORS album by SELF SABOTAGE RECORDS

—–

14. MAKE-OVERS trash pop garage punk something from the suburban wasteland of Pretoria, South Africa. I asked Csühes which would be the best time for us to make a show for them in Budapest? He said: every time. 7″ single on French label SIX TONNES DE CHAIR

—–

15. NOHAYBANDA! – electric math rock from Rome. Self-titled album produced by Italian MEGASOUND and STIRPE999 RECORDS in collaboration with OFF SET, DISCHI BERVISTI and from France EN VEUX-TU? EN V’LA! RECORDS

—–

16. Finnish jazz drummer OLAVI LOUHIVUORI – who is best known for his post jazz rock group Oddarrang – starts his five album project IMMEDIATE MUSIC to explore the limits of freedom in music with different ensembles from album to album. On the first album he is joined by Pekko Käppi on bowed lyre and Teemu Korpipää on synthesizer and sound effects. Result: space storms with solar flares.

QUINTRON – EUROPA MY MIRROR and WEATHER WARLOCK

After more than 10 albums QUINTRON‘s first book EUROPA MY MIRROR is recently released by GONER RECORDS. Illustrated by the amazing Miss Pussycat!

quintron

Ostensibly it is a chronicle of Quintron’s last European tour, but the book is just as much about the myriad illusions of American identity. The tales are funny and thrilling and mostly true and someone almost dies on every page.

“If Dr. Frankenstein were working with raw material from Madame Curie, Delia Derbyshire, James Brown, and Wilhelm Reich, the result might be something like QUINTRON. Underground inventor, composer, record maker, impresario, and performer par excellence. There is nothing and no one like him and this is his first book and it’s a gas!” – said Ian Svenonious – musician: Nation Of Ulysses, The Make-Up, Chain & The Gang, Escape-ism, and writer.

Quintron is a nightclub organist (and member of Gary Wrong Group) who runs an electronics repair shop/recording studio called Spellcaster Lodge in New Orleans. He invented a mechanically-rotating, light-activated drum machine called Drum Budy. His current project is centered around a weather-controlled synthesizer he made called WEATHER WARLOCK designed to produce mellow, healing tones, randomly modulated by sun, rain, wind, and temperature.

WEATHER WARLOCK also is a band. Their first album Sunset Waits For No Man was recorded with Weather Warlock on the Gulf Coast with Quintron, Aaron Hill (EYEHATEGOD, Missing Monuments), Gary Wrong (Wizzard Sleeve, Vatican Dagger) together with two New Orleans free jazz sax players to glue this mass of southern scum rock:

Weather Warlock’s second album Headless Falcon was made by the core group with with a handful of local musicians in Abu Dhabi.

2. Lourdes would be a nice little town in the French Pyrenees but it is poisoned by serious devoutness and pilgrimage industry because of a 14 years old girl called Bernadette met Virgin Mary more times there in the middle of the XIX c. whereafore she was canonized later.

3.

1. We never published any records.
2. We are support band only.
3. We play just slow songs.
4. No band photo!

were the basic ideas of British punk band Mekons when it started, but before their first gig in a punk festival the organizer told them – Fast songs or there is no show for you. So they played on double speed. After the show a man went to them and said: – Hey you are really great, I would like to release a single. Later when NME wanted a picture they went to a field and somebody made some shots from miles. After reject they built figures from coat hangers and took photos of them. Finally a photographer was sent by the music mag to crown the failure.

More later Mekons guitarist Jon Langford moved to Chicago in 1992 and discovered the similarities of country and punk, and formed alternative country bands as Waco Brothers (with a former Revolting Cocks and KMFDM member!) and Pine Valley Cosmonauts. Now here is his brand new album with FOUR LOST SOULS on BLOODSHOT RECORDS

In Oxford Mississippi
The past is always near
Conversations and brown liquor
Faulkner is still here

6. Castel Goffredo is a nice little North Italian town with a composer, Giuseppe Acerbi, who anyway was a jurist, and who knows why, around 1799 went among the Finnish and collected some melodies like „Do not be afraid of the people of Finland”. And also there is a fucking good garage rock’n’roll band BEE BEE SEA. Amazing second album SONIC BOOMERANG on WILD HONEY RECORDS (I) and DIRTY WATER USA. And of course there are some fine renaissance buildings too.

15. THE MONSIEURS (US), trash rock and roll trio of Amazing Andy California from trash rock and roll trio Tunnel of Love. Now with 2 girls. Second album DEUX on SLOVENLY

16. – In a sense the rock was a new teenage religion of consumerism, designed by the ruling class to replace the outmoded Christian faith of antipleasure which had been so useful to them since the feudal age. The juvenile delinquent was the true believer of his new faith. Thus rock was impatient, lustful, fast, and rowdy

– writes IAN SVENONIOUS in his book CENSORSHIP NOW. But now he introduces you to the art of ESCAPE-ISM with his brand new poetic one-man rock and roll show and album on MERGE RECORDS (US)

escapism

He was chosen “the most perfect boyfriend material” by the nation’s teen girl mag Sassy in 1990. Next year his Washington DC hc-punk band The Nation Of Ulysses released its debut album 13-Point Program To Destroy America.

Spray Paint with Dan Melchior

 

– Zac Ives daughter Anna knows our true spirit:

spraypaint

Last spring Texan label Monofonus invited Dan Melchior to Austin to record with local post punk idiots Spray Paint. Over a week or so beers were drank and songs were hammered out. The result is a Krauty-Crazy Horse-y blending of these two distinct artists. Dan Melchior (ex-Broke Revue) is a highly talented British musician. He comes from garage punk, worked together with Billy Childish, Holly Golightly and Walker Russel (Pheromoans), and usually makes experimental other music.

Their collaborative album under the name of Contributors out now. This record is the second in a series of Spray Paint collaborations that will be coming out on different labels. The 1st  with Ben Mackie from Aussie punk band Cuntz was released this September on 12XU Records.

Sometimes Art is Scarf

artishard

ART IS HARD is a small independent record label in Bristol (UK) run by two friends influenced by the attitude and ethics of labels such as Factory, Wichita, Anticon and Dischord. They have a strange habit: release things – mainly postcards – with music, but they published a scarf with download code too.

To celebrate their seventh birthday they asked seven label artists  Samuel Stacpoole from Black Tambourines, KEEL HER, /please/, The Death of Pop, Shunkan, Gorgeous Bully, Oro Swimming Hour to record a 50 second song. Each track is an infectious burst of garage balladry, lo-fi bliss or trademark jangle:

300 copies black 7″ flexidisc with gold foil artwork with a postcard containing a download code. And if you would like to get postcards with music regularly then join the club.

I have got the DARLENE SHRUGG debut album from the English label UPSET THE RHYTHM with the remark that it will certainly like to me. I thought of course when I saw that American art pop artist Meg Remy – aka U.S.Girls – makes music together again her husband the Canadian art rock artist Slim Twig,  and I like their music very much. And Toronto based synth pop duo Ice Cream also involved in the project DARLENE SHRUGG which started as a duo of long time collaborators Slim Twig and Simone TB of Fake Palms and more. I added these info and tried to imagine their music before listening, and I was totally surprised

In the late autumn of 2013 in Gothenburg, Sweden, the Baron called Philippe Jean-Piere Dominique Sainz met a beautiful creature, Linda Felicia Marie Rydelius, and they fell in love. Since then they created dark and mystical music together as BARONEN & SATAN. Their debut album SATAN IS A LADY will be released on 31st Oct on DIRTY WATER RECORDS USA. It’s sounds like an upside down cross between the Cramps and Bauhaus with Siouxsie casting spells through a fender vibrosonic amp!

The Mallissimal Movement born in the 50’s in St-Petersburg by self-taught Russian musicians who took an interest in old Siberian sacred rituals. The French CERCLE DES MALLISSIMALISTES is devoted to the research, preservation and diffusion of Mallissimal Music. Recently they recorded a work of an Italian far-leftist terrorist and composer Faustina M. Todesco who left the Music School of Milan before graduating to join The Red Brigades. It formed in 1970 and sought to create a „revolutionary” state through armed struggle. They attained notoriety in the 1970s and early 80s with their violent attempts to destabilise Italy by acts of sabotage, bank robberies and kidnappings. Their most infamous act was kidnapping and murdering ex-PM Aldo Moro in 1975. But Faustina M. Todesco quit from the organization in 1974 and fled the western world and left activism for mysticism. Later she killed herself in the river Seine. But I don’t believe these things. I think these are just the game of the fantasy, but I like them. And as always in the Mallissimal Movement, the matter is electro-acoustic trance.

LE CERCLE DES MALLISSIMALISTES: F.M. TODESCO – I TRE ANGOLI DEL CONTINENTE. Album on KYTHIBONG/ LES POTAGERS NATURES / MON CUL C’EST DU TOFU / LA REPUBLIQUE DES GRANGES RECORDS (All F)

YOU’RE IN DEEP SHIT

„I like rotten expensive arrogant self-destructive white male culture. Punk was too energetic and positive for me.” Ben Wallers

 

stallionwall

The Wall is recognized as one of the most famous concept albums of all time. Bass guitarist Roger Waters conceived the album as a rock opera during Pink Floyd’s 1977 In the Flesh Tour, when his frustration with the audience became so acute that he spat on them. Its story, which follows themes of abandonment and personal isolation, explores Pink, a character whom Waters modeled after himself and Syd Barrett who one time was the main songwriter of the band, but was fired owing to psychedelic behaviour in 1968. Later he turned into a silent mad. Well, Pink’s life begins with the loss of his father during the Second World War, and continues with abuse from his schoolteachers, an overprotective mother, and the breakdown of his marriage; all contribute to his eventual self-imposed isolation from society, represented by a metaphorical wall.

Ben Wallers said about: – I don’t find Roger’s lyrics embarrassing if I listen to The Wall with my Mom; but if I listen to Animals with my Dad, I get embarrassed and have to go to the toilet, sorry I mean bathroom.

stallionband

Anyway Waters is the really interesting character for me. A hopeless case, an utter shit-head. Brilliant character actor and composer. But I have to confess it was burnt into me at age 11/12/13 when I got into ‘Dark Side of the Moon’, ‘A Collection of Great Dance Songs’, ‘The Final Cut’ and ‘The Wall’. I loved them unquestioningly.

So much so that he and Alastair Mackinven also from Country Teasers now show you THE DARK SIDE OF THE WALL on their song for song interpretation triple album under name of THE STALLION.

Apropos of their work they quote inaccurately the cop who shuts the jailcell gate on Woody Allen’s character in „Deconstructing Harry”: – Let me give you some advice: YOU’RE IN DEEP SHIT.

It will release soon on IN THE RED RECORDS (US)

GREAT BUY, CRUEL WORLD!
