About this album

  • Updated: 03/04/2009

 Please note : This is NOT a new Trolley album*.

 

Rather, it is a collection of Remixes, Outtakes and Alternative versions of tracks recorded around the period of "Pedigree Joey" (The 2nd Trolley album).  As its title suggests, it acts as a companion to that album - rather than just being the bits that weren't good enough to be included in the first place.

 

Whilst this is a fairly madcap and lunatic sounding bunch of tunes, it's hopefully a blast of high-octane fun to listen to. I do still think it holds together as a surprisingly cohesive whole, despite its unhinged and chaotic sound.  The aural equivalent of dropping acid, then going to an all-night funfair.

 

I still don't know why I didn't included "The Tait (Part Two)" on the 'Pedigree Joey' album, as was originally intended. But I didn't. So it's here instead.

 

"Morbid Etienne" ** and also "MasterStroke" would have also been included on that album, had I not lost the original save-files to a bluescreen of death. Fortunately, I did have an analogue copy of each, recorded on tape - and they are too good to just throw away. 

 

*  A new Trolley album is underway, however. 

 

** (Yes the title is a reference to both Morbid Angel & Saint Etienne - The reason for which should become obvious when you hear it).

Musical Lunacy!

This is musical lunacy! Amidst the chaos, there are desperate grasps for coherence. The ideas heading towards resolution get crushed under the weight of its accompaniment. Your music has the utmost ambition, with no known ultimate understanding of direction. The music is more "human" than I care to admit. I'd rank this album up there with "Very Plath" despite being an out-takes/remix album. I'm a big fan. I want an autograph.
