It’s been a while since we heard from homegrown Island talent Thee Waxworks.
Regular readers will remember our excitement on first hearing the swamp voodoo blues sounds of the Island four piece, Thee Waxworks.
Things may’ve been quiet on the live circuit front for them recently, but we hear the lads have been squirreled away writing new tracks and hope to get into rehearsal premises fairly soon to start laying down tracks for a bumper double album.
In the meantime, check out this sweet review by Brian from Norman Records.
“The 1st tune ‘Altamont’ is something like a trashy old garage style Fall tribute that’s escaped down the hill on the back of an out of control milkfloat with Gallon Drunk & David Cronenbourg’s Wife chasing it in hot pursuit.
Contains conversational lyrics with cultural references type o’ thing.
The other tune has a more Velvets-y approach, referencing ‘I’m Waiting For The Man’ with a bit of a cute homespun Dylan vibe, trilling harmonica in tow.
They sound like a great knockabout bunch with a real homely touch, I like to think you’d dig their CD!”
