ILLUSTRIOUS ARTISTS
RECORDINGS COMPANY
IARC401 - THE HOLY SOUL - DAMN YOU, RA.
The Holy Soul's new album is called ‘Damn You, Ra’, and released on Illustrious Artists/Shock in late September. The recording sees the band flirt with exotica, doom and Brechtian waltzes; influences which sit alongside more recognisable Holy Soul material. Guests include Ralph Carney (Tom Waits, Jonathan Richman), Rui Pereira (Drones), Loene Carmen and Kate Mara.
IARC402 - VARIOUS - TWEENAGE SHUTDOWN
Ten bands of kids aged between seven and thirteen entered a studio in Sydney to record their versions of Sixties Garage and Beat classics, the resulting album is one of the most astounding, fun and coolest releases this year. Featuring songs by The Easybeats, Sonics, Monkees, The Loved Ones and The Remains, all given the wyldest tween-beat treatment!!
