– Zac Ives daughter Anna knows our true spirit:

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.

Wonderful little psychedelic melancholic folk pop songs from London by Dan Carey under moniker Astronauts. He is from alt-folk band Dark Captain (formerly Dark Captain Light Captain). His solo project was born while he was in a hospital because his fractured leg.

The new songs of Purling Hiss come to Dinosaur Jr to my mind, but this Philadelphian trio is better. I can’t endure J. Masics’ mewing.

„Weirdon” album on Drag City (US)

Thank God, less experiment and more music by Dan Melchior and Walker Russel (Pheromoans).  „Kraut-influenced space rock.” Maybe, I don’t know.

Lilacs & Champagne is a project of an instrumental rock band, the Grails’ two members, Emil Amos and Alex Hall. The L & C was created to be a direct tribute to the musical outsiders of the past. The Danish & Blue album made up of sounds sourced from Scandinavian porn and hyper-obscure b-movies from the late 60s.

Alone Again and… 

Dan Melchior‘s pink vinyl by an Aussie label. Only 100 copies! To tell the truth I think that his name speaks for itself and no need more words, but I know: OK the name speaks for a very good witty musician but this is known by only few people. This circumstance needs more words: after the split of his short lived first band (where his girlfriend plays trash cans) Dan Melchior sent a cassette to Billy Childish. With him, but mainly with Holly Golightly (It’s not a stage-name! Really.) worked together.
