my first encounter with times new viking was in the form of a cassingle. i found it lodged in what appeared to be a shrine to them on a street corner during our annual litter crusade. inside the cassette's handmade case was scrawled "this am band. good band!" next to that was a crude drawing of what appeared to be three people playing instruments. it smelled musty and had a real creepy, cultish vibe to it. i was intrigued. playing the cassette i was at once taken back at the raw primitivness of the music. the organ wheezed and croaked, the drums snapped with sickness and a guitar hacked through it all like a serrated, gangrenous knife. on top of this was a frantic male/female vocal drama. it sounded like demonic incantations or really elaborate recipes being delivered in a frantic, almost mantra-like chatter. it was unlike anything i'd heard in a long time. i needed to get to the bottom of the times new viking mystery. long story short, in the following months i saw tnv perform numerous times and got to know them rather well. and yes, i have found many more shrines (and continue to find them to this day). what you have here is a collection of songs found on the various shrine cassettes. they've all been lovingly fucked with my mr. mike rep, (the man behind the lo-fi genius of guided by voices' propeller and get out of my stations among other things) and as the old saying goes "the proof is in the pudding." tnv successfully skirt the current homogenization of the rock press pigeonhole. neither are they new-weird-america, nor are they newnoise- underground. i suspect times new viking are at the forefront of a new, yet-to-be defined movement. it's only a matter of time though. and when that time comes i want to be there. my shrine needs a motherfuckin' name! super limited lp edition packaged in custom handscreened jackets.

dead c / tusk siltbreeze sb 64cd after years of flirting with profound torpor, the finger is removed from the carb and new zealand’s favorite sluggish trio gets a lung full of bigtime entropy. slow, quiet, and barely played, this masterpiece sounds like it was recorded by several death row inmates on morphine. the future of rock right here, right now. ... while the next year's tusk -- titled ironically after the fleetwood mac album -- proved to be their last effort for siltbreeze. it also marked the end of their most prolific period, as the band subsequently spent an astonishing (for them) three years off record.

harry pussy / ride a dove siltbreeze sb 50cd ... that was followed not long after by a full album of new material titled ride a dove, also on siltbreeze. toward the end of 1996, feehan left his position as auxiliary guitarist, and was replaced by dan hosker. hosker debuted on a self-released live album, tour (alternate title: fuck you), in 1997. that year saw the band's final concert performances ; more singles followed in 1998, including split eps with frosty and pelt, but by the release of their final album on black bean & placenta, they had already called it quits. that album, let's build a pussy, consisted of a brief snippet of hoyos yelling, which orcutt then stretched out for an hour using computer software. following harry pussy's demise, hoyos briefly moved to chicago, then worked with transmission and monostat 3. orcutt had already released a solo album in 1997.

siltbreeze press release...

dead c / trapdoor fucking exit siltbreeze sb 40cd the dead c was formed in dunedin, new zealand in 1987, with a lineup of guitarist/occasional vocalist michael morley (a onetime member of the evocatively named wreck small speakers on expensive stereos), bassist and xpressway label head bruce russell, and drummer robbie yeats (formerly of the well-liked kiwi pop band the verlaines). in keeping with the early formats of xpressway and morley's own precious metal imprint, their earliest releases were only available on limited-run cassettes, but they also hooked up with flying nun in 1988 to issue their first lp, dr503 (which was retitled dr503b and dr503c for later reissues). a second flying nun lp, eusa kills, appeared in 1989 and featured a bizarre cover of t. rex's "children of the revolution." the dead c next forged a relationship with the philadelphia-based indie siltbreeze, which would issue the majority of their output over the ‘90s. the first was 1990's helen said this, which was later reissued on cd as part of a two-fer with the formerly cassette-only trapdoor fucking exit (the latter's title was used for the cd).
