Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds "Philosophy and Underwear" (New
York Night Train Records) 4 stars
Starting his recording career at the dawn of the 80's, Kid Congo
Powers sidestepped the prevailing shallowness of that decade to appear
on some of the finest records of that era- The Cramps "Psychedelic
Jungle" and "The Smell of Female", Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds "Tender
Prey" "The Good Son" and Barry Adamson's "Moss Side Story" to name a
few. Songs such as "The Last Word" with superbly discordant guitars
and anguished vocals, call to mind the first Voidoids album. Most of
the lyrics on these songs wouldn't have disgraced even the most
laconic of Warhol's Factory hands "It's the weather, it's the war/ I'm
confused, I'm a whore. MOJO Music magazine
Int'l Shades(IS) was formed in 2003 by legendary underground
musicians, drummer Bob Bert (Sonic Youth, Pussy Galore, Knoxville
Girls) and Mark C ( Live Skull, Spoiler) guitar and vocals. Bob and
Mark are joined by Tim Foljahn (Two Dollar Guitar, Cat Power, Half
Japanese) on bass and vocals, and Alexa Wilding (Dumbo's star singer
songwriter) on vocals and synthesizer.
Their first release, Hash Wednesday, is available on colored vinyl and
cd on Cass Records. The Big Takeover says, "Int'l Shades play
appealing post-punk pop that's as light as it is dark. This isn't
nostalgia, this is fresh."
Thrill Jockey recording artist Thalia Zedek, in a newly expanded 5
piece band featuring Winston Bramen, Daniel Coughlin, David Michael
Curry, and Mel Lederman , will be playing brand new material, along
with the usual original chesnuts. Thalia' s past projects include Come
with Chris Brokaw and Live Skull with Mark C. and Rich Hutchins
