| burning debut album from this just-about super-group of new zealanders: antony “a.m.” milton, stephen “seht” clover, and james “sandoz lab technicians” kirk - with special guest campbell “birchville cat motel” kneale on one side.
in days of yore this would have been relegated to a lathe-cut in an edition of 50 and wouldn’t have been heard outside of the island; thanks to howard stelzer for the co-production, resulting in copies of this lp getting out there for a little northern-hemisphere appreciation. |

| the stumps split fleet dodge lp
palindrone recordings, a new imprint out of new zealand, in association with intransitive (usa), now has available their first release and the debut lp by the stumps, split fleet dodge (palp001).
the stumps are an improvising psych/noise/rock band from wellington, new zealand. they have been described as a nz underground "super-group" by one writer; a "power-trio" by others. although no-one is completely sure what these terms actually mean, what is certain is that the stumps bring a wealth of talent and experience, and a certain heavyweight clout, with them to the table.
the core lineup of the stumps features antony milton (a.m., mrtyu!, nether dawn, pseudoarcana label, etc), stephen clover (seht), and james kirk (sandoz lab technicians, gate, black boned angel, etc). the band also regularly collaborates with other improvising musicians; on split fleet dodge the trio team up on one side of the lp with campbell kneale (birchville cat motel, black boned angel) on keyboards and electronics.
the lp is an edition of 300 copies, shrink-wrapped in pro-printed sleeves.
the stumps have played extensively in new zealand, including support for the grey daturas; two brief tours in australia have been very well received, and plans for tours of europe and the usa are underway. the stumps also performed recently at the 2006 lines of flight festival in dunedin, new zealand, alongside the likes of gate, a handful of dust, omit, birchville cat motel, eso steel and lovely midget. a cd release on last visible dog records is also scheduled for early-2007.
"…huge shambling blissed-out spacey rock swell and sprawl... deep space exploration." - anthony milton
