Don't mean to gloat but I'm sittin in this internerd caf on oconnel listening to the final mastered version of the HGF album. The cd is loud, perhaps even a touch too loud for this primitive earth equipment. But the brave will be rewarded even as their hifis are reduced to molten, smoldering wreckage. I think we should make a list of absurd rock hyperbole, so yknow we can quote from it for our own explotative promotional purposes. Like this:
".... the Holy Ghost Fathers sound like the evil-genius spawn of Jon Spencer and satan, hurling molotovs at the pensioner's picnic, like a bulging overful oil tanker being hit by the flaming remnants of the space shuttle, like all the bond super villains joining together to build the ultimate criminal super robot army, who then form a band and turn the spire into a 200' theremin...." `Who's next?
no i'm not currently stoned.

always thought HGF live were a bit hit and miss (sorry!). but that is deadly! you have to love having guitars that high in the mix. monster bass sound too. the word is 'dirty'!

Won't disagree with you there . I think we played one of our ropiest gigs ever at Ballroom #2 with the Coldspoons. Still that wasn't half as bad at our recent debacle in support of The Groovie Ghoulies (the drumkit collapsing on Phil mid song didn't really help..)

Still positive .|..| in' thoughts

I really enojyed the first two songs last Friday, any more "folk" vibes in your rock lads? I thought it was deadly!

I reckon we're gonna expand on that a bit. More evil bluegrass!

Yeah, I was disappointed to find on the "Angelus Bell" EP, made by a band described as "banjo and theremin, er, something or other", precisely one song with each, and another with neither...BLOODY RIP-OFF!
