| Following on from 2006's astounding "Death Before Distemper" (DCR73) compilation, DC Recordings is proud to present the second installment in the series: "Death Before Distemper - Revenge Of The Iron Ferret." The inevitable culmination of years of rodent fetishism, the Distemper that has been gradually affecting the label, manifest in recent DC Recordings events and peculiar art works, has demanded a new survey of our musical landscape from which we are now able to present the following specimens:
Booze is the formidable collision of Milo Smee (Chrome Hoof) and Demian Castellanos (The Oscillation); taking a break from their respective projects to deliver this febrile outburst of gravelly percussive filth - "Insanity Drive". And The Lefthanded herald from Finland and bring their lunar psych to the roster after several years of self imposed musical exile in their native country. Bot'ox features the talents of masterful French producer and DJ Cosmo Vitelli, here bringing a touch of the cinematic with the sumptuous disco groove "The Crash Theme". Already notorious for their recent DJ set at the "Hairy On The Inside" event in London, Muscleheads are a shadowy duo whose debut track "Phosphorescence" is a remarkable experience in droning disco-fied krautrock. The 63 Crayons deliver a mutated motorik classic in the form of the Silver Apples-esque "Heal Us". All of these tracks are exclusive to this DC compilation. Alongside these new characters certain members of the DC familiar are present with fresh new offerings. Depth Charge, the eponymous leader of our creed who some feared lost in musical oblivion, returns to dispel any such speculation with the truly masterful, Carpenter-esque "Castle Of Doom". Meanwhile Padded Cell give us a unique version of "Beautiful Gloom", a track taken from their new album "Night Must Fall" (DCR72) but reworked here by Liquid Liquid's Dennis Young. The Oscillation's bucolic "Somatone" is a glimpse of one of the many new directions that Demian Castellanos is heading in with his forthcoming material. Andy Meecham's Emperor Machine goes into library-esque territories with the bizarre mechanical guile of "Swiss Machine", whilst Kelpe's “Shipwreck Glue" is one of the standout tracks from the acclaimed "Ex-Aquarium" (DCR82) album. Due to repeated demands from the music consuming masses we have also featured here Kelpe's remarkable remix of The Oscillation's "Head Hang Low", previously available as a download only b-side. Released just prior to the summer, when DC artists old and new, will present a series of unprecedented live events, "Death Before Distemper 2 - Revenge Of The Iron Ferret" will provoke fear, rage, uncertainty and rabid delight amongst the musical hordes!  |
